Do I need Heim spacers?
Hi everyone, just picked up these A-arms on E-bay for $40 bucks. I'm going to fab them onto my 91 G9. I havn't done this before so any advice is appreciated. I'm going to use Hiem joints and my question is do I need to use Heim spacers like they show on the Jakes lifts and if so where can I get them? If not then do I bolt directly to the spindles? Again feel free to chime in with any advice on the A-arm install. My cart is a 1991 G9, 12"lift, 28" dirt devils on 12" rims, 23 horse vanguard.
Ps. Yea I know my fronts got a little lean to it!! Driver side shock mount broke!! |

Re: Do I need Heim spacers?
From what I can see of the A-arms...they are tie rod ends at the outter end of them. These will not work with your spindels. These look to be set up for the type of spindel you would see on a car or 4-wheeler. Most golf carts spindels have a hollow tube at the inboard end that a long bolt goes thru, geneerally a 3/4 inch bolt. The tie rods on your a-arms look to be adjustable for camber but I don't see any adjustment for caster, that would have to be built in. Just my .02 worth. But good luck on your build and definutly keep us posted on what you do.
