Product Details

The QA1 KML10TS is a high-performance 3-piece carbon steel rod end engineered for precision steering and suspension linkage applications. Featuring a 5/8" bore with 5/8-18 left-hand thread, this rod end is built for race cars, custom street builds, and any high-demand application where accurate steering geometry and durability are critical.

The KML10TS uses a Teflon-lined race insert within its 3-piece construction, providing smooth articulation and low-friction operation without requiring lubrication. The stud-style mounting design simplifies installation and ensures a secure connection in tight steering linkage configurations.

Key Features:

  • 3-piece construction with carbon steel body for superior strength and durability
  • Teflon-lined race for smooth, maintenance-free operation
  • 5/8" bore / 5/8-18 left-hand (LH) thread for precise fitment in custom steering setups
  • Stud-type design for easy installation in tie rod and steering linkage assemblies
  • Designed for high-load steering and suspension applications including circle track, drag racing, and street performance
  • Manufactured by QA1 Precision Products — an industry leader in performance suspension components

QA1 rod ends are a trusted choice for builders and racers who demand consistent performance and long service life. The KML10TS is ideal for custom tie rod assemblies requiring left-hand thread adjustment capability.

quick and simple

After reading several negative reviews, I was suspicious of the low price offered by Autoplicity but decided to try them out anyway. Much to my surprise, the belt for my car shipped immediately and arrived 2 days later via ground shipping from half way across the country. I was very pleasantly surprised with the speed of service and got my parts for the lowest price on the internet. A+!

My initial review was 1 star because I ordered a Thule rooftop cargo box, but cancelled the order after Autoplicity called me about collecting extra money to ship the item after their website did not charge me enough for shipping. After my initial review Autoplicity offered to ship the item totally free since the issue was a flaw in their website. This was unexpected, above and beyond in my opinion. I have yet to receive the item but commend Autoplicity's customer service

Everything went good, order shipped out the next day. The prices were good but the shipping cost was way to high $25 dollars for 2 head gaskets and some bolts oil pan bolts.
