Rose joint fork to weld to wishbone

Not sure if my terminology is right but I need a pair of these.

I am collating bits to fit an ARB and the down links will be rose jointed. The end result is a fork / clevis thing to weld to my front wishbones to bolt my rose joints to.

I could make it out of 3 sided box.

Any off the shelf items ?

Try "laser cur bracket" or "shock mount autograss" in a well know auction sites search bar - maybe something to fit your needs there

I used 3 sides of a square tube to mount my ARB. The small sides were tapered towards the top so there weren't any sharp corners. You can just about see them in this pic.

It only takes a couple of minutes to cut some out of 1/4 plate, if you are attaching to round tube then cut a hole to match the bone, another 3/4" from it to match the Rose joint then cut out with a hacksaw, literally 5 minutes work.

That's what i am thinking. 6mm plate the appropriate thickness for this sort of work? I am also going to have to weld some late to the chassis for the ARB bushes to mount to.
