    Uni-ball and heims

    I am doing some work designing a front suspension for interests sake. I was wondering if anyone can tell me where I can get fully dimensioned drawings of any standard size uni-balls or heim joints so I can add them in. Even better is there somewhere I can download 3D files of those components!

    I have heard aurora has files of their heims but I have never looked to confirm. Might want to check it out.

    I know it probably isn't the best place to buy them from but I know McMaster-Carr has 3-D drawings you can download for different formats including Solidworks. I don't know how they would compare to FK's stuff in dimensions though, maybe someone else might know?

    I was planning to model several and set up some cad libraries but have only recently started. Just curious tho if you have CAD why not just draw the ones you need. They are pretty simple parts.

    Just wanted to use something that was a standard size, off the shelf parts are easier to get and replace. I don't have any parts in front of me to measure off so looking for online references.

    McMaster-Carr website had what I needed, so thanks for that

    not a problem dude, I had found the downloads there when I was working on something for work and utilized it for my own designing stuff for home so I am glad they had what you needed!

    I meant to post these links with my comment but got side tracked. I know you already got what you need but others might like the links for reference.

    NHBB Astro Line Page 18 the AW series is common to Off-Road.

    I had another good link on my laptop but dont have it up will post with it later.
