Yes! you get a weldable tube of 30 mm dia, with a balance bar, the balance bar itself has indeed a spherical bearing like the ones of the rod-ends.

Once you have weld [not to much penetration] you need to clean-out the inside of the tube, because the balance bar need to slide inside the tube.
Use a hand hone machine like the ones used for honing of the master cylinders.
