You will have to replace your arms for threaded type,as steering components are not allowed to be welded. Vehicle manufacturers do xrays and testing to get there welded steering components engineered,also I suggest you get a engineer to make them,Cheers Paul.

i used to run them in the rally car in the front and rear and they worked fine untill they really had a work out say no more than 3 rallys and they were struggling and the replacement cost was a joke, just went back to bushes after that exercise
