Rod End Seals?
Anyone know who makes the best rod end seals? I use to have some that were the sandwich type, seemed to work well. I think I still have the package somewhere, maybe I can find it. Is there any other type? Just getting ready for the Spohn Tunnel Brace T/A install. Some say it's too noisy--I guess we will see.
Love rod ends, but man you have to watch them for dirt.

Re: Rod End Seals?
I use the Seals-It brand ones... they last about 2 good seasons before they need replacing. I just pulled mine apart, and had very little wear on any of my rear suspension which is all rod-ends. I'll replace the seals, and be done with it, $30 every 2 years is a lot better than $160 every 2 years for new QA1s.
