Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone can advise me, and possibly send me links to ideas and products so that we can make my friend's recumbent steering safe and efficient?
Presently he has put a bolt through each side and two lock nuts underneath (see photo) each side. And that is it - it pivots with this bolt.
I would like to see him with a stronger safer solution. I just don't want the steering to go twang at 35 mph..
Is there a kind of sheath fitting that takes a high tensile m10 or similar sized bolt through the track rod arm ends so that it pivots strongly and smoothly? Any other suggestions - like with special washers etc?
Any help is greatly appreciated, as it could save a life. Thanks.
