Re: Looking for misalignment Inserts for (LCA's/PANHARD)

You could always buy aluminum stock and machine it down to get a custom offset. If you have access to a lathe, this would probably be the cheapest.

Otherwise you could probably take the metal to a machine shop and they could probably do it cheap.

Yet another option is to take the metal to a tech school. Talk to one of the shop teachers and see if you can get it cut. Sometimes they'll do it for free because it is a good learning experiance for the students. If for some reason they aren't in spec you'll probably only lose ~$5 in material costs.

Just my $0.02

Re: Looking for misalignment Inserts for (LCA's/PANHARD)

Hello,

We can also sell the ones that keep the rod end centered in the mount rather than off set. They would be $6.00 per rod end

Hope that helps!
Ryan
