Traxxas rod ends fit on the yokomo balls if you have the balls, or just use the traxxas balls. RPM makes white ones but you need a beefy turnbuckle like 3.5mm or maybe even 4mm.

These are possibly the most wanted Yokomo parts, so unless You´re one heck of a charmer or just loaded with cash, it´s going to be long quest

My advice is to buy a good condition YR4 and use that as a donor.

I picked up a yr4 nitro just for the bits, it went for $15 on eBay. These things pop up once in a while, I've paid a whole lot more for a bag of parts than I have for a complete car a few times.

you can also 'fake' it by using the associated shock ends and balls also.

Comes with balls and rod ends and turnbuckles, although they are the wrong length for a YZ 10.
