Default RC4WD Heim and Alum Rod Ends - through hole sizes?

Anyone building with RC4WD Heims (steel rod ends)?

For all the info offered on the RC4WD site, most of the descriptions do not contain the size of the through-hole in the ball???
Now I'm guessing that M4 Heims have a 4mm through hole, but many of the alum ones have strange sizes, so I am not sure.

The standard alum ends, are 3.1mm.
Not sure why the 3mm Precision Alum ends are 2.86mm???

I have an email into them, but wondered if anyone else already knew.
Curious about the 4mm and 6/32 models.

I have the 3mm ones and they have a 3mm hole, I'm assuming they are the same size as what ever the thread is. Oh and the bent ones have a lot of slop

Thx for the info. I had 4 of the bent ones in my cart to buy!

You are referring to the steel Heims, not the alum links, correct?

Default Al Rod Ends

Anyone have any feedback on the bent aluminum rod ends? Thinking about picking some up.
