Wow thier tie rods are " lifetime structurally warranted against bending or breaking ", course u pay for it, chromoly rods are less than half the price, rather buy 2 of those for less $ and keep the extra set on the DS so if they broke out in the woods id be prepared and able to drive home lol

I have a set of those upper a-arms, I've had to replace the hiem joints 3 times now. Pain in the ***. The arms themselves are great. The hiem joint that mounts to the spindle, I changed to a ball joint . A lot of skrewin around I found. If I was to do it again I would have spent the extra and bought the TBR or Stong Arm arms.

Hey Domi, I have a set and beat the everlivin' crap out of them. I was wondering what you were doing to break them? Having a little insight beforehand will help a lot. I love mine. Glad I got them.

i ve had them for 4yrs now and nothing has broke, the heim joints wear out to quickly.Like I said the arms themselves are good. TBR hiems seem to be a little more beefy. Thats great that your arms are holding up.
