Reply to "Ride hight"

FWIW, I use 1/2" thread by 1/2" bore heims in my steering, along with 1/2" taper/straight studs. No real reason to use a heim-thread that's smaller than the stud its attached with.

The Pantera is built with rather light-appearing front suspension parts. Compare a Pinto front spindle pr steering arms to a Pantera spindle & steering arms, and you may be shocked. Yet average Panteras still survive racing LeMans (Classic), monstrous-oversize engines and 50 yrs of  'vigorous' street driving.

I personally do not use teflon lined joints in areas that are likely to pound out. I've lost a few, which convinced me to avoid them. I use premium all-metal heims. YMMV, as always.
