Swivel end screw thing
pekwah1 - 16/7/17 at 08:34 PM

Hi guys,

Hoping someone can help, my rear view mirror has a part inside that allows it to swivel around but it's made of plastic and lasted not very long before splitting.
Does anyone know where I can get something like this made of metal?

It has the ball on one end and a female m6 I think on the other.

Thanks in advance.
Andy

Tailgate gas ram perhaps or something similar

what size is the ball? I have some throttle linkage parts, which have abour a 6-8 mm ball

Thanks,

I've realised that it was quite stupid not to take a photo or measure it.
I'll have a check tomorrow

Hi, thanks not sure that would be...
It needs a 10mm ball, I've taken a photo which I'll post in a second

No worries, this may help you out, the linkages I have are 8mm

Something like this?

Steel gas strut pivot 10mm ball m6 stud/pin/bolt/foot x2
There's plenty of similar ball studs in the other viewed bit as well.
