As the title says, i want to convert to the nice raceleda spherical based rod ends, for my raceleda sierra replacement uprights...does anyone have a pair burning a hole in their garage (i know, wishful thinking!!! ).

Or, better yet, does anyone know of a good alternative, for sierra based uprights?

I'm going to use rose joints for my rod ends and also the hub top ball joint as I've already got rose jointed front wishbones.. and lots of spare spherical rod ends as I bought a big box of them to make my wishbone IRS..

All I can see needed is the spacer both sides (Raceleda have nice cones) of the spherical to give it space to pivot and a long HiTen bolt to clamp it down...

You mean you already have the raceleda uprights, but not the adapter pins? Just whip them up on a lathe

Good point. The raceleda stuff is just a rose-joint w/ a pin and a sleeve. Ok, any source for the pin?

Joel, are you volunteering your lathe???
