do a search for "rose joint" i think it was, you'll find it there.

Thanks that helped but then I ended up taking the lazy route and called Calmini and it should be here in 4 or 5 days :) i guess I had it too far out.. You are only supposed to have 3 or 4 threads showing, mine is like 1/2" out  :-[

ther are 3/4-16 heim joints, i called calmini for the size. although i bought my replacements from a local shop that sells aurora teflon lined joints. they only costed me $48 canadian each, and boy did it fix the problems i had with the old one. no more squeeks, or read axle bump steer.
