Default ? on getting RE hardware

I got a used RE track bar and need the hardware for it (bolt, nut and the caps for the heim joint) anybody know where to get them other than direct from them? They want $25 plus $8 shipping. Or is that the best way to go?

They MIGHT... I would look back by where they stock parts for 3-pt. hitches though. a heim is pretty close to the same idea as a the top of a three point hitch...

On RE's website they show a cap thing for each side of the joint. I will check at tractor supply sometime this week and see what i come up with. I am not sure if they are called caps but the polt goes through them.

I would just order from them, it saves time and money for gas looking.

For sure I would order the caps from RE. Depends on what resources you have for the bolts and nuts. I have a bolt store about a mile away and am in there for something about once a month. If you have one that can supply what you need then it might be cheaper that paying the shipping.
