rose joint bush material
Hi there,
I am making my slowly growing avon's rear bottom wishbones.I have my own lathe and i make my rose joint bushs myself from miled steel, but I
worried about that if the threads will strip out.Is the miled steel correct material or am i have to use hard steel?
Thanks

mild steel is what rally designs ones are made of (i think)
and bear in mind you can get aluminium rose joints...
legends race cars 4 link bars are threaded aluminium tube

the size threads you are looking at, mild steel is well up to the job

Hi mate,
Thanks for comments.The rose joint material seems like hard material but not sure(bought from tigerracing?)The rose joint is 1/2" UNF and I
make drill hole 11.5 mm (according to the search from internet) the result seams ok.
