Ive come up with a new idea to do some heims joints for my truck steering. i built a set before but wound up sellin them to a friend for his project since i didnt like how i did it. But heres what im lookin at. I have the Exaxt steering kit and it goes a great job of keepin the tires straight in 4wd under full boost but the inner tie rods still allow a little toe in and i dont like it. i can not find another inner tie rod thats stronger so thats why im doin this. my question is, if a tap the 1 1/4" .250 wall DOM steel tube on the lathe, would it be suitable to hold my heims with out rippin the threads out? I can order the weld in bungs but i dont mind puttin a little work into the tube and save a few bucks unless it is concurred it would be unsafe. in that case id just get the bungs, plus id jus really like to know what im workin with as far as strengths and what not. BTW the heims are 7/8" rod ends
I do know what you could get me for Xmas!
