Has anyone found a stronger ball joint for a 07 MXR? We broke one and bent one today in a XC race. Darn trees. Cost us a win.

Are they the same thread as the first edition apex?

If so, take a look at the ES219R.

Sorry....ES419R! I wouldn't purchase it until you know it will work for you. They are usually german built because they are for a 60&70's VW. Tie rod end.

Yes. Take one of your old ones with you to compare before buying.

If the ES419R is the correct number it is made by TRW. The NAPA part number is 269-2059.

Checked our race bike yesterday and we are definately running the ES419R.

You can find them on EBAY for 10 to 15 dollars.

I don't know the answer to that. If you needed to you could take your into a parts store and compare them.
