QA1 rod ends

crash2 · Mar 30, 2009

I have not bought any in a long time. Anybody know who has the cheapest price on them? My steering is in need of some love right now (3/4x3/4 rod ends)

I bought them from summit a couple of years ago in the CroMo flavor for $26 each. Ballistic shows them for $24.99 currently and I'm sure there is a PBB discount if you order through there...

Crash I'd try the Midwest control hiems...

I bought both QA1 and the midwest from Ballistic, in all honesty the finish on the hiems looks better on the midwest hiems. Not sure on how they'll hold up but for the price I can replace them 2-3 times maybe more before i covered the cost of the qa1's

I have been getting them as well as the QA1 units for awhile now. QA1 and Midwest use the same body and ball, QA1 is assembled in US, Midwest are assembled over seas is the story I got.
Never had any problems with the Midwest ones in the last year, just ordered a bunch more.

Dan over at Ruff Stuff carries Midwest brand. I've dealt with Dan a handful of times and have always had good luck with him in the customer service side of things.

These were the longest lasting ones I have ever used. Lasted (sloppiness) twice as long as the QA1's I've been running recently.
