Midwestern Control Dogbones
I had one of my dogbones snap last week and was on the phone with Midwestern Control to purchase the pieces to make a pair of dogbones. Karen, the rep there, said they are discontinuing the DMCBH-5 ball joint housing used in the wiki. Once their current stock is exhausted they will not be making any more.

Re: Midwestern Control Dogbones
Thanks for the heads up. I will have to update since it will no longer be a viable option.

Re: Midwestern Control Dogbones
Is this M5- 0.8 or M5 -.08 for the threaded rod size?

Re: Midwestern Control Dogbones
I just tried buying Qty 5 of these for $13.00, and the cheapest shipping option is $20.80 for UPS Ground
Yeah, no thanks.

Re: Midwestern Control Dogbones
I needed specific shear pins for my old snow blower. The company wanted well over $10 to ship four pins. I sent an email asking about it and they dropped the shipping cost to a more realistic amount. It never hurts to ask.
My junk pile:
71 Jeep Gladiator. Restored w/#s matching engine. My WeeBeasty
70 1600 legit 2nd owner. Stroked and bored
Several salvaged w access to a barn full of parts, part cars & whole cars
......What's in the barn is for sale. What do you need?
