[iano21]

I know wat the obvious answer here is off driftworks. . but I don't want there rose joints there not lasting. . I put in rear camber arms and rear toe arms. they had not even done 1000km and there was rocks in the ball of the rose joint.

so is there anywhere dat anyone has gotten a different make rose joint~??

Or look on ebay for a good quality one.

group 4 have top quality 1s im sure they could match your thread and work out but there not cheap

Were your arms brand new when you bought them? That isn't good if they wore out that quickly!

Just a small side note here probably obvious but I wouldn't cheap out when buying some new rose joint (also search Heim joint or Spherical bearings) as they are the weakest point in the arm (assuming driftworks arms are as well made as they say they are). It's more of a safety thing.

Like murray sr22 mention Grp4 Fabrications can probably get you whatever you need as they sell Aurora rose joints which are one of the biggest bearing manufacturers going. Have a look on their website

ya they were brand new with the rubber covers and all. . I have heard a good few complaining about them!!

thanx for the help ill get onto gpr4!! just the rest of the arm is straight forward so just thought maybe I could get the rose joint

Did you contact Driftworks and tell them about it? They might throw you a set if its been that short a time.

well could not get just the spherical bearing anywhere only off driftworks but you get a rod end which is the loly pop end with the bearing in it. . its a m16 right hand thread with a 16mm hole and got a top jap make for 19+vat with grease nipple and all in it!! so sorted
