Thumbs up Heim joint size

anyone know the size of Heim joints they use in the crossover steering set ups? Or are the tie rod ends better?

Either will work, and work fine. If you go with Heims, use a minimum of 1/2, but I would recomend 3/4, and make sure you use a good quality one. I like Heims, and I think they are stronger, but tie rod ends seem to last longer.
