Rock Jock Johnny Joint Rod End Narrow Forged Thread Ball

The Rock Jock Johnny Joint narrow forged rod end (also called a Johnny Joint heim joint alternative or threaded suspension rod end) has been a staple of the off-road industry since 1996. It was designed by John Currie. It is a greasable, rebuildable joint for link, control arm, track bar and steering applications. It handles heavy articulation off-road. On the road, it stays smooth, cushioned and quiet.

Key Features:

• Forged steel body: a strong, durable threaded rod end made for demanding off-road use.
• Narrow body design: allows more articulation than a standard-width joint. The one-piece bushing gives a slightly firmer ride.
• Urethane cushioning: a high-density urethane bushing surrounds the inner pivot ball. It absorbs vibration and harshness that a traditional heim joint passes through.
• Threaded shank: the shank is threaded for adjustable link and bar lengths.
• External greasing: a zerk fitting on the joint body lets you grease the joint without taking it apart.
• Rebuildable: internal components can be serviced, which extends the life of the joint.
• Fully assembled: arrives ready to install in universal applications.

Johnny Joints need a non-synthetic, high-moly grease. They should be greased at regular intervals, but not over-greased. Rock Jock offers matching jam nuts, weld-in bungs, rebuild kits and service tools as separate parts. Fabricators and suspension builders choose Johnny Joints for a reliable pivot that works both on the trail and on the street.
