Personally, I would never use heim joints on anything but a purpose built 4x4 rig for tie rods.

Not designed to deal with the day to day dirt and grime that is life under a truck, even worse in a rig that is wheeled. They survive for a while, but lifespan will be shortened due to the environment. The improvement in feel is minimal (if any) over regular old tie rods that are in good shape anyways. I'll take something with a weather resistant boot and greasable any day.

The extreme ground pounders are in a different place though due to the lowered suspension and the need to correct steering geometry so you're into custom stuff and compromises not matter how you go.

How much you selling for? Or can you give everyone a parts list? And what is the eye to eye measurement? I had to shorten my end links because my track width was narrowed with the new arms.
