Thanks.

No ways my search would have ever found that.

Now to see if they have it in 12mm.

ballistic fabrication. That's where I get all of mine. I'm making ladder bars for my brothers truck tomorrow with joints from ballistic.

Do they have a web site?

No prob. they are a pretty good company to get stuff like that from and their brackets to make anything suspension related for off road vehicles etc. custom work can be sent to them as well.

Try Steele Rubber . Ive used them . If they dont have it they can produce it , May than carry it for the next guy.

 

[hermanj]

Thanks. We use metric here so 1/2 no good with 12 mm bolt through it

I think McMaster-Carr has these but you need the right name to find them. They're not with the rod ends like you'd think because it's not a bearing since the center sleeve doesn't spin.
If I'm wrong I'll be able to figure out a source when I get back to work.
