Rock Jock Johnny Joint Rod End Forged Thread Ball Suspension Control Arm

The Rock Jock Johnny Joint forged rod end is a greasable, bushed rod end (also called a heim joint alternative or threaded ball joint) for suspension control arms, links and trac bars. Johnny Joints have been a staple in the off-road industry since 1996. They suit fabricators and suspension builders who want strong, articulating pivots with some cushioning.

Key Features:

• Forged steel body built for demanding off-road use
• Wide articulation: Rock Jock says Johnny Joints allow far more unrestricted movement than a common heim joint, which helps suspension flex
• Urethane bushing internals encase the inner ball. They give cushioning that a heim joint cannot, which reduces noise and harshness
• Heat-treated, cross-drilled pivot ball allows through-bolt lubrication
• Heavy-duty internals: heat-treated side washers and a snap ring retain the joint internals
• Zerk fitting allows external greasing
• Threaded shank lets you adjust the length of the arm or link
• Serviceable design: rebuild kits and replacement parts are available

Care Note: Johnny Joints need regular greasing, but they hold only a small amount of grease. Use a non-synthetic, hi-moly grease and a hand-pump grease gun. Do not use pneumatic or electric grease guns, because over-greasing can damage the joint.

Choose the thread, joint width and ball size that match your build. Rock Jock Johnny Joints give fabricators a durable, serviceable pivot for control arms, trac bars and links.
