FAQ
What is the CE-9112NL-22?It is a universal narrow forged Johnny Joint rod end with a 2-inch body, left-hand threaded shank, and the ball dimensions shown above.
Is this tied to one year, make, or model?No. It is selected by dimensions, thread direction, mounting geometry, load requirements, and the design of the suspension link.
What thread does the shank use?The shank uses a 1-inch-14 left-hand thread and must be paired with matching components.
What mounting bolt size is required?The pivot ball has a .562-inch through-hole, so the mating bolt and brackets must match that dimension and the application design.
How wide is the pivot ball?The ball is 1.850 inches wide at the mounting faces.
Can this replace a right-hand threaded joint?No. Thread direction is part of the link design, and this product has a left-hand thread.
Does it require grease?Yes. Service it with the manufacturer-specified non-synthetic high-moly grease and a hand-pump grease gun.
Is fabrication required?It may be required when building a custom link. Welding, material selection, geometry, and load validation should be handled by a qualified fabricator.
Are the jam nut and bung included?No. Those pieces are separate and must match the 1-inch-14 left-hand thread and the link design.
Installation Instructions
- Compare the required joint diameter, mounting width, through-hole, shank thread, and left-hand thread direction with the link design.
- Verify the package label and manufacturer part number CE-9112NL-22 before fabrication or disassembly.
- Inspect the brackets, mounting bolt, link tube, threaded bung, jam nut, and available articulation clearance.
- Have any welding or custom link construction completed by a qualified fabricator using a validated suspension design.
- Thread the joint fully enough to maintain safe engagement, set the link length, and secure the matching jam nut.
- Install the correct mounting bolt and torque all hardware to the applicable vehicle or fabrication specification.
- Cycle the suspension through its operating range to verify articulation, brake-line clearance, driveline clearance, and absence of binding.
- Lubricate with the specified grease using only a hand-pump grease gun and reinspect the assembly after initial use.
