but you will have to grind out the inside weld seam to get the insert in.

or notch the insert. assuming you use a 3/4 heim with .188 wall there is plenty of meat

This is where I got my track bar "panhard bar" ends from. I think I went through ebay.

Sharpe you probably already figured it out but I think the panhard guidelines are that it should have the same geometry as your drag link (length and parallel) and they should both be as flat as possible (parallel with the ground). I'd put a poly bushing on the bottom end and a joint (heim/johnny joint/whatever) at the other

I was just going to use fairly inexpensive heims at both ends. Is 5/8" big enough or should I go 3/4?

Thanks for the link Matt, here's the ends from there

$7 each, nice.

Their bungs arent the right ID for the tube I want to use though (already have it).

one bushing and one bigger, better heim should be much quieter and more robust

i agree with the hippie

Bushing on frame or axle end?

I'd put the heim at the frame just to keep it out of the way, but I don't think it matters and you may have more room for it at the axle end

this is pigpen, is noise a huge concern?

Who said anything about noise?

thats what i was wondering

I did. Friends don't let friends use cheap heims

edit: damn not everybody at once! And Ryan agreed with me :flipoff2:
