Those are some massive fawking heims for a four link no??? I plan on using the HM-16-1 1.0" CrMo rod end w/ stainless steel liner ($65 ballistic) on my upper triangulated 3 link, with poly bushings frame side. Then I'm using 909 XM-12 3/4" w/ 5/8" ball CrMo rod end w/ kevlar liner ($25 ballistic fab) for the lower links.

I was gonna run the new evo joints but after adding up the cost I decided to try somthing else. Check this link out (if you havent already)
http://www.pirate4x4.com/tech/billavista/PR-Joints/index.html
Now ive decided to run the Re super flex joints and two RE builder ball joints. Got them pretty cheap like $30 for the 2 1/2" joints and $40 for the larger 3' joints.
