All i can say with confidence that my parts are as strong as remmele/mbt setup, if made from 7075 T6 alu

Housing design is similar, but thicker and has 20mm joint instead of 18mm joint. I also added side gussets to my design bracket, it made significantly stronger to resist bending.

Yes, its true that with this style parts, there is no more flex like with springplates.

Uniball joint itself in its housing can move sideways 4 degrees to both sides, but there is no joint slop at sideways inside housing.

Yeah, the threaded bar can indeed broke at any design, i have seen too. I think too that is caused by arm moving too much sideways caused by too much flexing inner bushing?

I would / could do in a future modified connecting bar with two opposite direction threads, to have easier fine tuning. Too bad that my machinist doesnt have any left hand taps, they cost about 100 euros.

One possibility to convert existing assemblies to change uniball joint to left handed thread version and have made only connecting rod.


But i did design long holes to brackets for finetuning at 944 aluarm application.
