Default putting a heim on the bottom of a spindle

Ive been thinking about take the box section lower arm where the standard ball joint bolts up and getting a 3/4" thick piece of steel to put at the end of the box. Ill tap it to insert the heim and have the heim riding horizontally, sticking out of the lower control arm and having a bolt pass thru it and its misalignment spacers to the spindle. I like H&Ms idea for the upper on their new ranger kit, and have already done that but am looking to do this on the lower, unless there is a reason why the balljoints im running *89-94 style would work better/be stronger.

Obviously a heim is not as strong in this direction but i was wondering who had tried it thus far with success. Thanks.
