Well its been too long already. If Tonguefreak doesn't answer my e-mails soon I'm going to start taking some Legal actions.
I hate to do it but you have to do what you have to do.

I bought a set of these end links off of a member here who bought them from ToungeFreak.

The parts look good quality, but they aren't all identical (Identical enough, though)

The markings on the male end of one of the end links themselves say "Sealmaster TRE-6" and "Aurora, USA."
The Female end says "MW 6". This is the only one (of four) that is lubricated, so I think that is the only difference out of the ones I received.

The first hit of a Google search is a PDF spec sheet of these parts and has all the information you could possibly need.
http://www.rbcbearings.com/designeng/RBC-int-heim.pdf
http://www.vintagebonanza.com/pdf_files/Heim-cross-reference.pdf and a cross-reference guide...

If anyone is REALLY interested, I might be convinced to snap some high res photos and send them off to Sealmaster or one of their distributors to get some proper pricing. Heck, i might just take them to a bearing shop in town here and get them to match it.

Ok, I got slightly confused. I'm not sure on the relationship between Aurora and Sealmaster... I think they're the same company.

Also, some of the part numbers aren't jiving 100%.

But, the numbers I see on the parts should work.
Another set of end links also say "Aurora MB-6" and "Aurora CG-6" <-- Not 100% sure on the 'CG' but that's what it looks like. I can't find that part number anywhere, so my previous post's marking of "MW-6" from the other end link should work. Or, substitute for the MW-6Z for the lubricated one.

I'll sure let you know how the fit works. The parts are all identical, so I don't think it matters front/back. I wouldn't mind having all lubricated ones though.

I'm fixing my rad and thermostat this weekend, but we'll see if I have time to do the end links as well. Could be a bit longer due to the cutting of seized joints if that's the case.

Actually I live in Aylmer Ontario not Quebec. Sorry, I wish there was another enthusiast close to me.

I might still have his address. He is shady. I had to terminated a trade because he lied to me. If I don't have it anymore, ask Barry, they have his membership info on file.
