i have play in my minisport heavy duty adjustable bottom arm rose joint, bit of a long shot but does anyone know what size thread these joins are, i have been in contact with minisport and they cant help me, what i do no is they are not the 1/2 inch ones

[MRA]

So if they are Minisport items why can't they help you ?

[akaflash]

they say they never had to supply replacment joint and maufacturer of the arms wont supply rose joint seperately, wont even tell what spec and size they are

[R1mini]

Just measure what they are, confirm thread , UNF, UNF, metric, male or female, and order them from someone like Mcgills, these are by far the cheapest for quality rose joints/rod ends whatever you want to call them

While your on get some sort of rubber boot to protect the joints from road grit, etc and they will last much longer

These sort of things making sure you get the right size for your application

Selling rose jointed suspension components and never had to replace one??

As R1Mini has pointed out use good rose joints and a fully enclosed rubber boot and 99% of all issues will disapear.

We have been supplying our rose jointed bottom arms with a fully enclosed rubber boot for over 20 years....

Hi I know this is a old post but what size boot do I need to fit the bottom arm rose joints from minispares?

 

Minispares do not have any in stock

[MRA]

This is an old reply..... the boots are sized to the joint, ie a spherical bearing with a bore and thread size of 1/2" requires a 1/2" boot, the only issue is odd sizes bearings, for instance 5/8" thread / 1/2" bore would need a special boot or maybe go for the larger (5/8) if nothing else is available
