Re: anyone know what size and details for a better heim joint on a jakes
As far as size goes, you'll have to measure what you have on there. Take one off and take it down to your local auto parts store and use their thread gauges. Basically just match up what you have to what you're looking for at McMaster.... I get my heims at Speedway Motors, but they are all pretty much made the same. Get the highest quality heims you can afford. Don't get aluminum, get Chromoly.

Re: anyone know what size and details for a better heim joint on a jakes
Several years back when I was reading about Jake's front end heim joint replacements, a fellow posted this website...so I saved it.
This page just gets you to the $3.99 Heim Joint "Safety Washer". I dunno if that's needed or not....but you may wanna check out what they got:https://www.kartek.com/parts/heim-jo...-the-heim.html And just to add to your tool box....if you don't already have these....pick up an American thread and a Metric thread gauge. Well worth the $10-each investment. I use these several times a year for stuff .....all kinds of stuff!! https://www.amazon.com/ChgImposs-Imp...a-795985503346 |
