Anybody know if there's an easy way to add a heim to a stock Track bar?
Here's what I'm thinking: The '79 trackbar for my FW axle swap is about 4" too long to mount at the stock location on the axle, and about 2" too short to mount outboard of the spring tower (a-la lars' setup). But since I'm trying to maximize my articulation anyway, Adding a heim to eliminate bind at the trackbar would be a worthwhile thing to do. It would also let me make the bar adjustable to really fine tune the length.
Before I go out and buy a nunch of tubing and completely fabricate a new bar, I wanted to see if anybody had any ideas for mounting a Heim on the end of a stock bar... I think the biggest hurdle is going from a solid bar to an internally threaded tube that will accept the Heim...
Any ideas?
