Howdy gents, has anyone use the Kryptonite Suspension parts for the control arms and tie rod ends? Pros and Cons if so?

i just installed them, the tie rods are extremely easy to adjust, which is a nice plus. The control arms are nice, but they dont have any built in mounting other than the ball joint bolt for securing the abs wire, the grease zerks that come with the arms for the bushings are 90 degrees, i would get a straight one, the angle looks very hard to get a grease gun connected at that angle . Requires a zip tie if you have to much play or rubs on anything. I went with the whole package, center link, pitman arm, steering stabilizer, and sway bar links. Havent drive it yet as engine is pulled

I’ve had them on my 01 Yukon for a few years and it’s been beat on a lot off road. No complaints

can i get a pic of the sway bar link setup? i want to get those next
It looks funky compared to a stardard gmt400 which is a straight bar, these have more like ball joint style ends, these actually ended up being the hardest thing to install on the suspension. partially my fault, i tightened down the sway bar bushing first which was also very hard and didnt want to undo. I was worried they were going to hit the upper arms but they didnt. I would recommend doing with the uppers removed, would make the job much easier. The nylocks can only be tightened down with a wrench holding the top of the link in place otherwise it will spin in place

I have their center drag link, tie rods, and pitman arm. All the parts are top notch.

How are these holding up?

I can't attest to their durability or longevity because my truck is still a work in progress. With that said, I found no negative reviews when conducting my research. These are very high quality parts. They appear virtually indestructible.
