Default ? bout Johnny joints

Johnny joints fit in RK LCAs? Looking to replace ends of my LCAs to a greaseable ends. Also does anyone know the size of the threads?

If the thread diameter and count match, then yes. You need to find out what RK taps their control arms to first.

EDIT: A quick look on RK's site, they only sell the krawler and monster krawler joint in 1"-14tpi or 7/8"-14tpi. Looking quickly on currie's site, I only see a 1"-14tpi JJ with the proper bracket width of 2.625".

as long as the threads are the same you can use, currie, ballistic, metal cloak, heims, or any other. Just match the threads and joint width. Make sure you get the proper left hand/right hand threads.

If the arms are 1"-14tpi, yes.
