i snapped the one on my uly at the eye, the threads were seized and I kept on turning...pieced a new rod together with a couple 5/16 clevis' i had hanging around the shop to get me by until I could order a new part....that was a year ago, the look grew on me and its definitely not something I have to worry about breaking

I have not ordered them jet ,but was planning to.

Going to measure the heim joints from my xb and compare them with the size table below on the page.

How many do you need?

Well i finally thought about this!

The hiem joints on a xb are closest to M5 size metric.

(shipping is free ,so it's worth a try)

I found out XB uses 10-32 heim joints. Pretty cheap unless you get stainless
