Rod ends
I'm starting a TwinForce crawler. Four linking it. What rodend to use on this size of truck? I've got 1/4" rod to use for the links but I think the 4-40 rodends will be to small. What would YOU guys use for the links and rodends ? Thanks.

RE: Rod ends
well I am kinda new to this but found that the Losi Larger ends were Much nicer then the Traxxas or the ones that "Others" sell. They are a 4-40 ball hole, and 8-32 stud. They alse were only like 10$ for 8 with very nice balls that have a cup built in to them for the hardware to be hiddin inside..
