so im going to be doing a little fabbing on my portal brackets. and as always you have to have a breaking point /flex point. with the added stress of steering with bigger tires and wider stance i figured id alter my steering arm on portal bracket reduce steering angle and decrease steering pressure needed without going to power steering. after going to every little shop around 2 towns close to me. u finally found the thread size and pitch and will be replacing with rod ends m14x1.5 with 14 mm hole. aka my weak point. the bolt that will be going through the rod ends probably sleeve a smaller bolt so it sheers and just keep a bunch of spares. but here is what i found which is shorter than stock tire rod ends. but a cheap permanent fix.
