Well, I broke my first rod end on my Losi Comp Crawler. Seems I'm having trouble finding stock on the replacements. I assume there are some other compatible ones?

Yes, other brands are compatible. You can't beat Traxxas rod ends. Most prefer the Jato length rod ends. You just have to ensure the hole size is the same diameter as your link threads. With Traxxas part number 5525R, you have to purchase the metal pillow balls separately. The link below gives you the plastic rod ends and includes the pillow balls.

Others prefer RPM rod ends, but I hate those. They are softer plastic and they stretch.

I ended up getting whole new rods and ends. Got a pair of Traxxas of the same length for cheaper than buying new rod ends. Anyhoo.. back up and running. Thanks for the help!
