Product Details

The QA1 XMR8 is part of the XM Series alloy/chromoly steel male rod ends featuring a unique loader slot design that delivers ultra-high strength and performance. These heavy-duty rod ends are commonly used on 4-link and ladder bars for their exceptional strength and durability, making them ideal for high-performance suspension applications.

Loader Slot Technology:

The XMR8 features a reinforced Nylon 12 injection molded race with self-lubricating PTFE that keeps out dirt and debris while providing metal-to-metal support for heavy shock loads and smooth operation for low loads. This self-sealing and self-lubricating liner won't pound out like traditional designs, significantly extending the service life of the rod end.

Specifications:

  • Thread Size: 1/2"-20 RH (right-hand)
  • Bore Size: 0.500 in (12.7 mm)
  • Head Diameter: 1.312 in (33.3 mm)
  • Ball Width: 0.625 in (15.9 mm)
  • Thread Length: 1.500 in
  • Centerline Length: 2.438 in (61.9 mm)
  • Misalignment Angle: 12 degrees
  • Static Load Capacity: 16,238 lbs
  • Construction: 2-piece

Premium Component Construction:

  • Ball: 52100 bearing steel, heat treated, precision ground, and hard chrome plated
  • Race: Reinforced Nylon 12 with self-lubricating PTFE
  • Body: Heat-treated alloy/chromoly steel with protective coating for corrosion resistance

Key Features:

  • Metal-to-metal support for heavy shock loads
  • Increased cross-sectional thickness for greater tensile strength
  • Self-sealing and self-lubricating design eliminates the need for grease fittings
  • Superior wear resistance compared to traditional three-piece rod ends
  • Precision ground components for smooth operation and long service life

The XM Series rod ends offer excellent overall value and provide the best performance for most motorsports applications. Sold individually without jam nut.

great prices. shipped out fast

Easy ordering. Bets price by far. Fast shipping.

Excellent prices on all the items I have searched and very fast and reasonable shipping.

Autoplicity had the Readylift kit I needed at the best price I could find. They shipped it very quickly as well. I am very pleased with this transaction.

The part I needed at a good price, shipped promptly. What is there not to like!

Wow!! I came across Autoplicity while searching for a fuel pump for my Trans-Am. Not only did they have the cheapest price for the part, but they also had extremely reasonable shipping cost. Most websites claim to have free shipping but it seemed the cost of shipping was added to the cost of their part. Then I find out my order was processed and shipped within one business day!! I'll definately be bookmarking Autoplicity's home page!! Thanks!!

Thanks!

Great price! Quick shipping. The intake I ordered was $20.00 cheaper than anywhere else I looked. Item was instock and shipped quick. Will order from Autoplicity again!

Great prices. Fast service.
