- Are the RPM Long Shank Rod Ends compatible with my Losi vehicle? — Yes, these rod ends are designed specifically for Losi RC vehicles and feature the standard 4-40 thread specification used across the Losi range. However, the long shank design means they're suited to particular suspension configurations, so you should verify they match your specific model's requirements before purchase.
