Because you never get things perfectly in plane, and end up killing bushings and bolts and mounts like 571 does.

Don't worry, smike will say for your use it's fine...

toyota use is a little different... i never had issues or cared about 1/8 slop on the CJ.


erik does the same with his buggy with a little better setup with Bronze bushings that are replaceable.   Tractor supply off the shelf components were the attraction for me.

id go 3/4 or 7/8ths heims honestly.  i hate TRE, but they seem to work well on the Dak.

they seem to have proven themselves a weak point on the Dak... have had VERY few steering issues over the years that weren't a TRE bending like a pretzel

I have a tie rod with the bungs welded in from Atom, I replaced it with a longer one. Its 1.5" .250 wall square. I even have extra bungs if you need to shorten it.  If you want it let me know.
