1.25 Heims

[lowbudgetjunk]

I am setting up a 4 link front and rear. 1.25 heims. I have been looking and researching and finding a large difference in prices. What is the best bang for your buck? I don't mind spending a few extra bucks for a quality product, just don't want to overspend of not necessary.

Alright ninja's. Who's using these joints and how do they hold up? I want reliability as much as anything.

WARFARE is running them. I've compared them to "name brand" and can't tell the difference side by side.

We trust QA1 rod ends with our builds. The last thing you want is to save a couple bucks on cheap rod ends but have a suspension link fail taking out hundreds of dollars worth of shocks, steering, driveshafts, etc.

If you want to know more about QA1, check out this write-up. Great info on quality standards, that a lot of other rod ends don't have.

I've heard this as well. The ones on ebay will go on sale occasionally and it makes them really cheap.

Ruff stuff here aswell. Haven't had the XJ out yet but will soon! Most of my club ran ruff stuff also. We never has a failure with them. Worn out yes, broke no.

im runnin ruff stuff and barnes 1 1/4 on mine. Both are great quality products and great places to buy from. A local shop put together a f250 super duty with custom 4 link front an rear for sema a couple of years ago and used 1 1/4 barnes heims. When it got back to east TN with 10,000 miles on it they were still as tight as the day they were brand new.
