carb linkage ball ends

I have been meaning to post this for quite some time but I was kept so busy I couldn't look up the part number for the Schlafhorst Autocoro 480 part.

I sent some samples to C.B.Performance back in January. Never heard a peep about them afterwords..

837-266-002. German made nylon 5mm ball ends for your carb. linkages. they are high quality and work sweetly. German parts still made BY a German company.

A bunch of us have converted to 5/16" heim joints on the ends of the hex linkage bar, just to get away from those ball ends...

We have those also.. but they are kind da fussy to adjust unless you have the both left hand and right hand version each linkage. Then its not so bad..

These 5 mm German nylon ball ends. are embedded with something to make them tougher.

Their are nearly 1,000 of them in each of these spinning frames. Most are the originals well over 10 years old that have been in use 24/7 from date of delivery of the machines. They do have to be gently shoulder nutted to keep the tread bosses form cracking from continuous use.

But I assure you they are pretty tough, and much easier to use...

Barry, are you talking about the downlinks or the ball ends on the hexbar itself?

I used needle bearing on the ends of my hex bar, she is slickly smooth .

You can use the ball ends on aether type 1 twins or the 911 type 4 twins . I have them on both my engines,

They are 7/8s of a inch long by 3/8 wide x 1/4 thick and are dark green in color, 5m.100 treads and look like nylon..

I need to check with C.B. Performance to see what they did with the 4 I sent them. to look at
