Looks like the 4-40 and 6-32 heavy duty rod ends here here:

I remember Du-Bro sold the 'standard' 4-40 ends BITD, but not the heavy duty ones; the standard size never worked well, the ball was too small to use for steering links, and the LHS never carried the large ones. I think they were all the same OEM; Parma, Rocket City, Technacraft, and all the Clod Buster chassis makers sold them.

I really dont want to cut the good ones down but they are just too long to use on a turnbuckle. for now im using the stock rod ends on a ball stud.
