All for $380... I could use this for my suspension links, tie-rod and drag link could I not?
After the $120 I would spend on weld on bungs, $90 on currie johnny joints, and $80 on chevy 1-ton TRE's, would this not be a more viable option? I would have plenty of trail spairs and could even make a few custom tie-rods for folks to cover the cost if I really needed to (have cash now.. not to worry)...

Please give me your concerns and burnage.... Having extra's on hand is a big hoo-raa for me.

If I were to buy it i would only use it for steering links. So depending on how you set them up you could make 4 good sets of crossover links. The part that the bung fits into the 1.25 x .120 sch is what scares me. I just is too small for suspension links, personally.
 
I'm goin with my Johnny's but I am deff using their bungs and hiems for my steering links, just going to buy 2 extra of everything for spairs, still end up cheaper than the TRE set up
 
Quality seems good, found the site through a guy I knew up at WCU that uses them for his steering links on a 97 TJ with D60's. They do have teflon and nylon, he's used both and they last him anywhere from 8 months to 2 years. I'm deffinetly getting 2 spares, and even after that its comes up 60 bucks cheaper than TRE's. Main expense is weld in bungs and the joints, TRE bungs are 13.50, these are 6 for bungs and 13 for the joints. Not to mention this company lets me use my own shipping account and just pay $5 fro handleing per order.
 
Just got 4 hiems, telfon races, 3 weld in bungs and 8 missalighnment inserts for $64
