No changes in geometry and I'm replacing a stock piece with a heavier one.

Interesting concept. Worth a try to see if it solves your problem. I think the torque arm shaft going through the center of the heim joint might gall over time. It would also be better if the heim joint was held into a bore with snap rings or the like. Welding the outside of the bearing isn't going to be good for the life of the joint.

I think the factory torque arms arm free to move fore and aft, albeit with some friction in the bushing. The factory setup probably doesn't allow for angular changes as well. Has anyone tried a squishy rubber bushing to see if the issue is better or worse? We have urethane torque arm bushings on the Red Shift cars.
