@@boatsandjeeps780 The only heim joints I am dumb enough to use currently are the links on my anti rock. They are shot after 2 years, so I’ll be replacing them but I will seal them with rubber boots. I had heim joint on my aftermarket steering before switching to currie currectlink. They self destruct because there is no way to keep them clean or lubed . Dirt, dust, mud, etc.,work like sand paper to destroy them. There are grease zerks and rubber boots on TRE’s for a reason. How long do you think they or ball joints would last open to the elements?
