Artec RE1439 JMX 7/8"-14 Chromoly Rod End Kit LH 3/4" Hole 1.63" MW Narrow

Vehicle Fitment

• Universal - designed for suspension and steering applications on Jeep, Toyota, Ford, GM, and other solid axle 4WD platforms requiring a 7/8"-14 TPI left-hand (reverse) thread rod end with a 3/4" bolt hole and 1.63" mounting width

Fitment Notes

• Left-hand (reverse) thread - verify thread direction before ordering; for right-hand standard thread at 3/4" hole and 1.63" MW, see RE1438
• Paired with RE1438 (right-hand) on adjustable suspension links - one RH and one LH end per link creates a turnbuckle-style system for precise link length adjustment without disassembly
• 3/4" bolt hole and 1.63" mounting width (narrow) - the narrowest configuration in the JMX 3/4"-hole family; intended for bracket slots narrower than standard 2.0" or 2.625" Artec bracket widths
• Verify your bracket mounting width before ordering - for 3/4" hole at 2.0" MW, see RE1437; for wider 2.625" MW, see 9/16" hole variants (RE1434/RE1435)
• Tube adapter included fits 1.0" ID x 1.5" OD DOM tubing - verify your tubing ID before ordering
• Jam nut should not be reused once removed - always install a new nut if the rod end is disassembled
• Sold as a kit (single rod end with associated hardware)

Features

• JMX series PTFE (Teflon) liner keeps the joint tight and quiet for significantly longer service life than injection-molded nylon race alternatives
• Heat-treated 4130 Chromoly body with silver zinc finish for corrosion resistance and high tensile strength
• Heat-treated bearing steel ball with hard chrome polish for smooth, low-friction articulation under heavy loads
• Heat-treated alloy steel race outlasts budget rod ends with injection-molded races
• Left-hand reverse thread enables turnbuckle-style link length adjustment when paired with a right-hand RE1438 on the opposite end of the same link
• 3/4" bolt hole provides maximum shear strength at the mounting point for the 7/8" shank JMX series
• 1.63" narrow mounting width suits tight-clearance bracket slots and custom fabrication applications not accommodated by wider MW variants
• Wrench-flat tube adapter allows easy jam nut tightening and link length adjustment without surface damage
• Stainless steel high misalignment spacers ensure correct installed mounting width of 1.63"
• Made in the USA

Product Description

The Artec Industries RE1439 is the left-hand (reverse thread) narrow-width variant of the JMX 7/8"-14 TPI rod end kit, with a 3/4" bolt hole and 1.63" installed mounting width. It is the direct turnbuckle complement to the RE1438 right-hand kit - one of each is used on opposite ends of an adjustable suspension link, enabling precise length adjustment by rotating the tube without loosening brackets or removing hardware.

As the narrowest 3/4"-hole JMX kit, the RE1439 is designed for tight-clearance brackets and custom fabrication applications where the 2.0" MW (RE1437) or 2.625" MW (RE1435) variants are too wide. Built on the same JMX platform, it features a heat-treated 4130 Chromoly body with silver zinc finish, PTFE (Teflon) lined heat-treated alloy steel race, and a hard chrome polished bearing steel ball. The wrench-flat tube adapter fits 1.0" ID x 1.5" OD DOM tubing. Left-hand thread - for right-hand standard thread in the same narrow 3/4" hole, 1.63" MW configuration, see RE1438. Sold as a complete kit. Made in the USA.
