Are they made with longer thread on the shank any one know ? Installing a taller lift in Stay Puff and the track bar heim wont adjust out enough to be considered safe.

Yes, you can get longer threads in larger sizes, but not that long. 3" is about the limit I think. A 3/4" heim is a large joint and much larger than the heims used in steering components. Even our suspension joints are 9/16"
