A spherical rod end with a flexible fluid conduit is disclosed. The spherical rod end includes a housing having an outer region and a spherical inner race surface, with a fluid passageway extending between the outer region and the inner race surface. A spherical ball is included in the spherical rod end which pivotally mounts within the inner race surface. An elongated flexible fluid conduit, having an end adapted to be coupled to a source of pressurized water and an opposite end in fluid communication with the housing fluid passageway. Water from the pressurized source is used to lubricate the interface between the inner race surface and the spherical ball.
