Spacer Mis-Alignment 5/8 -1/2in .375in OAL Each

The Spacer Mis-Alignment 5/8 -1/2in .375in OAL from Wehrs Machine is a precision rod end bushing engineered for high-misalignment suspension and chassis applications where standard components cannot accommodate angular or lateral deflection. This adapter spacer bridges bore sizes from 5/8 inch to 1/2 inch, making it essential for custom suspension geometry setups, bracket modifications, and linkage repairs where original equipment tolerances have shifted or where aftermarket components require transitional fitment.

Manufactured in steel with black oxide finish for corrosion resistance and durability in harsh underbody environments, this 0.375-inch-long spacer is built to handle the oscillating loads and angular stress common in performance suspension systems, drag racing frames, and heavily modified vehicles. The high-misalignment design allows the rod end to articulate smoothly even when mounting points are not perfectly aligned, preventing bind-up and premature wear on spherical bearings. Black oxide coating protects against rust while maintaining a professional appearance and is compatible with standard lubricants used in automotive linkage systems.

This component is ideal for chassis builders, suspension engineers, and experienced fabricators working on vintage hot rods, race cars, and heavily customized trucks where factory suspension geometry cannot be replicated. Installation requires basic mechanical knowledge; simply nest the larger 5/8-inch bore end into its mounting point and thread or bolt the 1/2-inch bore end to your rod end or linkage component. Always verify misalignment capability matches your expected angular deflection range, and ensure sufficient clearance around the spacer's 0.8-inch outer diameter. Each spacer is sold individually; multiple units may be needed for full suspension systems with multiple pivot points.
