I don't know if any of you have seen these before or not, but I thought they were pretty cool.
They are available at Grainger for $7.95 each. They are listed under "threaded knobs" Grainger part# 4X040. They are made from 300 series stainless, dimensions are 3/8-16 threaded, 1-1/4 diameter x 3/8 thick (knurled large OD) , 3/4 (small diameter) and 7/8 tall. The knurls are deep enough that you should be able to get them pretty tight with a rag or glove. The plastic ones I've seen look like they're easier to break. These stainless ones are the same height as the plastic but are nearly a 1/2" smaller in diameter.
I was wondering what people have been replacing the stock rubber bushings with. Any particular brand? Anyone have a manufacturer/part number and a place/website where I can obtain some?
Also, besides the obvious advantages, what are the pro's and cons of front sway disconnects? Searched here and (the other place) but didn't find too much info on it. Some folks are talking about the sway bar hitting, others talk of the hardware mounted to the frame being too flimsy and running the risk of breaking.
any low down on that?
thanks
