You just guessing here and you're wrong. The point is, these are within the realm of failure loads and fatigue life for what they are. Weather you like it or not, this is how engineering and math works.

Double check my work... I could have gotten something wrong.
Force is based on the fact I know I can close the 2" gap from tire to fender on a hard hit. So Im compressing a 1450 lb/in spring by 2*0.76 inches. Dimensions of the arm are from one of my cad models, distance to thread/body intersection guessed at 125mm.

just condescending 'expert' comments. I'm still trying to figure out what the issue is, using math or experience with materials, your exact (math) numbers or hypotheticals. is it bending or stretching that youre concerned about?
just waiting on you to pick on my grammar next

Its not condescending, I tried to explain, gave good real world numbers of an example, and you come back with but this chain link holds 3000lbs.

you got fired up, ran the numbers, CAD... you could have just told me to use "5k" force on the the wheel, i would accept it lol, just get back the original topic. Can you bend a short threaded rod or not? run the numbers on that if you could please

And you're still picturing threads in tension/compression. These are in bending. Different world. How about you go find a race car with threads in bending.

Those adjustable threads are everywhere and is used widely by individual/small team racers. professional teams wont use them because they manufacture their own parts to exact dimensions
so if youre going to design adjustable control arms, you would use adjustment holes and bolts then?

Im going to go ahead and be done with this. The math is there for scrutiny, and its an industry standard to keep threads out of bending.
