Default know where I can find a M22 x 1.5 rod end?

I'm trying to swap the TRE on my Rusty's trac-bar for an actual spherical rod end. Unfortunately the threading is M22x1.5 LH and that's not looking readably available. Ideally I would like to find one with a stud but really I'm just looking for the heim joint first. I've already checked Ballistic and Ruffstuff but its all standard threading; Google wasn't much help either. I guess if I have to I'll drill out the threads and weld and in an insert but I'm reserving that until I'm sure I can't find anything.

Any idea's? It's would need to be a male stud btw...

might try summit racing or a place like lowrider depot or suicide doors they might have them.

Here you go. You even get the bracket which converts it to double shear...

^ OR THAT! damn that looks like the way to do it. You think those last as long as the joints? I mean hell I have that on one side so I don't see why not. I guess that totally removes any binding with a long droop too; I have their three link long arm.

Iron rock offroad makes amazing products and tests all their stuff on their rigs extensively. If they stand by it, then I can't imagine it being anything other than great. I bet the rubber bushings last longer than a heim would, without needing rebuilt.

yeah I agree. I was nothing but impressed with the 3-link I installed on my daily. It just seems the removing of the factory uppers really put a lot on that trac-bar TRE and its already knocking again; not to mention the slack in the wheel... I'm going to get that ordered on Monday. Thanks for the heads up I think that's the way to go.
