Re: PROJECT: Pokey
Question for the gurus.
Tie rod / drag link set-up:
1.5" with weld in inserts or 1.25" threaded DOM? Hiems are out of the question.
I am leaning towards the 1.5 because bigger is better but the weld in inserts are the "weak" point I guess.Unless i drill a hole in the tube and plug weld them also. Thoughts? Need to get this done before I go snow wheeling.{o===o}Originally posted by TBS-POPSEXCUSSSSSSE ME oh RUBIMASTER!!! I forgot how Awesome YOU ARE!!! I BEG your forgivness....Originally posted by CityHickI don't give probabilities in percentage format anymore

Re: PROJECT: Pokey
Weld in inserts make the job soooo much easier. I have not seen any failure at the bungs before.
I have done 3 setups all with weld in bungs, super simple to do vs trying to tap the tube or giving someone else the measurements.
Thats how I rub...I mean roll!

My drag link is weld in bungs, and my tierod is threaded. I have seen one failure of the weld in bungs, but that was on a rock racer.Marc D.
