I asked Mike at PartsMike about heim jointed steering arms, and I thought that you might be interested in his response.<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>Randall, if you really want to use heims I can do a set. I have seen too many people try and use the *inferior heim as compared to a tierod end and in the end they change to tie rod ends. <br>*much less articulation, less strength by a bunch, wearout fast and are not servicable. Sprint cars use them as the cars a light, NASCAR 3400 lbs cars use regular tierod ends as they need to have a higher degree of safety and heims won't stand the down force and weight of the vehicle.<br>If you still want the heim style I can send you a cuple of arms for that purpose.<br>Thanks,<br>Mike<br>(530)885-0673<br><hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--> <p></p><i></i>
