Heim joints
I'm getting things together for my PS swap on the cruiser, and I'm not sure what kind of heim joints to run for my drag link. I know most people use a 3/4x3/4 (3/4" thread with a 3/4" hole) heims which are plenty strong for what we're doing. But I was also looking at 3/4x5/8 (3/4"thread with a 5/8" hole) heims, which have a higher load rating than the 3/4x3/4 and the 5/8 bolt allows the heim to reach a greater angle. The only thing is how much weaker is a 5/8" grade 8 bolt than a 3/4" grade 8 bolt? I would like to have the greater angle but I don't want to sacrifice strength and all I've really seen on the trail is 3/4x3/4.
