buy the telon ends you will no longer need to spray them as they are self lubricating. they cost alittle more but trust me its well worth it and they money you spend on lube spray pays for them in the long run. -
A lot use FK Rod Ends they are 15-25 per heim you CANNON use oil based sprays on them they will sell I use a dry film Teflon lube and blow them out. They really seem to be a difference maker people overlook even on the tie rodsComment

We use the FK Teflon lined rod ends and love them. No lube required. Just clean them up from time to time. As previously stated, DO NOT lube a Teflon lined rod end. It will destroy the lining.Comment

Have gotten really good use out of the cheapest standard FK rod ends. Just have to make sure they are cleaned and lubed>Comment

QA1 PCM-T rod ends. Chromoly + Teflon lined. They're like $10 or $12 for 5/8" and last all year.
PCMR10T for right hand 5/8"
PCML10T for left hand 5/8"
PCMR8-10T for 1/2" x 5/8" RH
PCML8-10T for 1/2" x 5/8" LHComment

Graphite powder works well and doesn't collect dust and dirt like oil and greases do. The biggest killer to metal on metal parts.Comment

MachineMasters where are you getting them for 10-12 I only see them 15-17 and up, which is about the same maybe slightly less then the FK Rod EndsComment

I get mine direct from QA1.
Looked up my invoice from the last purchase and I was a little off earlier.
PCMR10T $12.03
PCMR8-10T $11.51
PCMR12T (3/4") $15.00
Lefthand are the same price. I also got the small 3/4" hex jam nuts with 5/8" thread. Can use the same wrench for checking shock bolts as jam nuts while under the car. JNR10s-1 and jnl10s-1 were $.87 each.Comment
