McMaster-Carr has metric rod ends, and I imagine the fasteners as well. (www.mcmaster.com/)

Hope that helps.

I'm in Tokyo right now, and my brother in law is on his way to my hotel with the parts in question.

If for some reason these do not work, I will research the links above.

Thanks!

Great. Not knowing your application, ISO standards are a bit different than AN and MS if it is for an aircraft.

I was told to get alloy steel. It is for a hydraulic actuator for our inner gear doors.

Metric bolts are conveniently marked with their strength on their heads.
