made from 2'' aluminum bar (solid) with UHMW replaceable skid. Joints are special made Chromoly Heim joints with Stanless Steel High misalignment spacers. Molded injection vinyl with teflon linings. Joints will support 28000lbs of tensile strenght. The ball is also heated treaten and zinc plated.... They are threaded left-right on a each link, enabling for ajustement on the truck. anyway... very happy with the result.. Will be offering them soon on http://www.4x4design.com :yesnod

It's one way to do it.... maybe overkill, but yes, these will replace the rear arms... :-)

To keep it safe ( to not have a too small amount of thread threaded), I would say safely 1 inch... So this way, you would still have 3/4 inch of thread on each side still 'inside' the link...
