Tech Insight
Running a 7/8 shank with a 5/8 bore is a common choice for builders who want increased rod end strength without reworking tabs or brackets designed around 5/8 bolts. This setup offers improved durability and load capacity while keeping articulation smooth and controlled when paired with stainless misalignment spacers.
Perfect for high-performance four-link systems using 7075 aluminum links or heavy-wall steel suspension links.
