    I have never heard of anyone using hiems for steering. You will be an innovator in the world of motorsports!

    I don't really want to use heims. I'd rather not innovate tie rod ends, I'm looking at the evo tre's. They look pretty beef at have plenty of movement. Only thing is $$$ for a reamer.

Here's some pictures of what he did, but I want to do a single shear setup, no hydro, and strait tie rods.

    Also might be ordering cut and turned beams from threat motorsports next week if I can gather some cash. I emailed solo motorsports about their price, but I'm really liking how threat motorsports welds in a new billet piece for the lower balljoint instead of moving the stock one and plating it in.
    didnt he start a thread after KOH saying that the steering didnt work like he wanted and he was having a "design contest" to get it figured out?

    The steering worked great, only problem was his full hydro setup was too slow. What happened was he pulled off the road to let somebody pass him, and he hit a stationary boulder that took out one entire side of his steering and eventually ended his race by bending and breaking a hydraulic fitting and PSC was closed so he couldn't get a replacement for it.
