That's it, anyone know a source for metric heims? The rubber bushings in the panhard have tooooo much give, got into a nice speed wobble last night and it mangled the rubber.

It got set off by a bump but I watched out the window once it calmed down a bit. The axle is racking back and forth and its is steering the tires back and forth at just the right frequency.

I slacked back the castor a lot to make it a little lazy and most of the wobble dissappeared. If it hit at highway speed I don't think I could keep it on the road.

Why do they have to be metric? I am sure they are available, but they are likely very pricey.

Just cause all the brackets are metric now, but since they aren't common I'll be making some new brackets!
