if you do not sell the pack I'm interested in the eccentricity.
are aluminum?

[kaszal]

Yes, aluminium. There's already one bid but you're welcome to join in ;)

I'll include these as well for the winner...

i could make them? im a cnc machinist, if i had the bearing and a plastic one to copy would be easy!

Thanks gixxer, I might take you up on your offer... what I really need at the moment is some 3mm diameter x 70mm rod with 5mm threaded ends. I need it a HIGH TENSILE steel because the stainless ones I have bend too easily. It's for the rear wishbone brackets as you can see in the photo. I can get M3x60 HT cap head bolts but these are a bit too short and for some reason were not straight when they arrived (?) Do you work with this material or can think of an alternative solution?

i had a problem like this on my rc8 where the rear gearbox halves were held together by cap head screws screwed into plastic and they kept rippin out i just bought some m3 stainless threaded rods off e bay and cut them to length and put nyloc nuts on either end job done!! alot easier than machining tool steel that dia and length, or i could do 2 rods to your spec out of titainium for about 25 quid all in? or tool steel/silver steel for around half that price?
