[QUOTE="Phantom 309, post: 1121095, member: 7908"] Anyone have any thoughts on using heims as tie rod/drag link ends? Besides using ones that are stong enough and the wear issue, are there any other reasons not to use them? I use them on my trail jeep and it stears great and I haven't had any problems, but I'm thinking of using them on a street driven truck. I have a 87' Chevy pavement pounder that I started when I was in high school that I pulled out of storage to finally finish. It's kind of a "show n go" type truck and was thinking of making the tie rod and draglink (crossover) out of 1" stainless rod and hiems. The tires are 39"x15". Is this a bad idea? Any info on the safety of this would be appreciated. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
