I know must of you are wondering how can you have a rod end problem, well I got the RPM rod ends, normal 4 - 40s but They keep poping the balls there intended to stay on. Does anyone recommend a good replacement set that may fit a little more snug.

Depending on the range of motion required on the ball joint in question, a small washer could also help in this area. I have used washers on the outside of the rod end over a ball. In order for the rod end to pop off the ball it has to pop off and go over a washer...doesn't happen too easily.
