Where to buy parts for spherical ball joints?

Does anyone know of a source for parts for spherical ball joints? Specifically looking for the spacers and different length pivot pin/kingpin or whatever you call it?






Thanks for any info you can provide. . .

Alot of these suspension joints are critical safety components. Personally i wouldn't order them through McMaster since you never really know what you are getting (they don't list the manufacturer on their site).

You are better off going through someone like Pegasus or Baker Precision where you know the exact part and can reference/research the manufacturer specs to determine if the part really fits your application needs.

I'm kind of going through the same thing trying to design/cobble together some endlinks right now.

Ok, so you're looking for the pin and spacers, not the spherical joints.

My guess is there are two ways to get those.

1) Custom.

2) Some japanese tuner like Deck Mechanical or a US company that's built TA cars like AMS.
