My Vintage Spyder uses one 1/2" heim joint on each trailing arm as the forward pivot, there are no torsion bars. Vintage Spyders use coilovers.

They neither wear out or are noisy. 40K on the set. I also use the special washers to retain the joint even if the heim ball fails. I recommend these washers for safety's sake if the heim isn't captured by a two-sided bracket.

8 rod-ends, 8 threaded tube inserts, 8 jam nuts and 4 steel tubes and this problem is permanently solved. Add two more joints for the Panhard rod if you must.
