Panelfantastic, by “Morrison” are you referring to Art Morrison? In Art’s online catalog I only see one design of heim joint. Also shown, are what appear to be non-spherical rod ends which look very similar to but are not heim joints. Unlike the heim joint, a non-spherical rod end would not be able to swivel about it axis. I think that we may be talking semantics here. I think a heim joint, or spherical rod end, could be referred to as an “isolating” rod end. But the similar looking non-spherical (non-isolating?) rod end should not be referred to as a heim joint. Unless there is some variation to the original heim joint that I’m not aware of, which is of course a good possibility, all heim joints by there basic design are “isolating” (assuming I understand what is meant by “isolating”). The Eagle Products coil-over conversion kit utilizes heim joints not non-spherical ball ends.
