HI, Im new here on this fourm,
My Vetter Terraplane trim grip Heim joints are shot resulting in a really sloppy attachment. Jay at DMC has the lower Heim joints.
Where can I get replacement Heim joints for the Trimgrip (upper rear mount). If I cant rebuild the trim grip I will have to go to a 4point attachment system. Does anyone know the thread size of the trimgrip?
I'm betting that i am not the only one who has experienced this problem. I knew this would be the place to ask such a question. I have a bunch more questions, however I've learned not to ask too many at one time.
Thanks

There is a groop at Yahoo groups dedicated just to the Vetter sidecar. You might ask there.
We have all of the NOS vetter mounting hardware but nothing for the trim grip and I have not had a vetter with a trim grip in the shop for about 10 years and as I have not had to rebuild one, I can not answer your question. If you do find out what size the heim joint is, chances are we have it in stock.

Ahhh, I found loose steering stem bearings.
Attached is trimgrip photos. This dont look stock to me. Or is it? Ive never seen what stock should look like.
That doesnt look anything like the one I had on my Terreplane. Very crude. I suspect the original was lost or damged somehow.
Home made trim grip.
