I broke one of the heim joints in the shift linkage over lunch today. Does anyone know what size they are (length, shank thread, hole diameter)? I'd like to call around and find some after work since I'm stuck in second gear, but I'm at work with no tools/time to check myself. Anyone know?

Thanks!

You want CM3's. I got mine from a Hydraulic Hose Supplier in my area.

Thanks for the info...I just ran outside and measured it up and placed an order through McMaster, though. More money, but it ships today and hopefully I'll have it by tomorrow...otherwise, I'm not riding this weekend

McMaster has them: p/n is 99961A520

Looks like you need to buy a pack of 25, though. Maybe check a local hardware store (good luck with LH thread though).
