I have used both a welded double arm setup and a chaos histeer setup. I feel much safer with the histeer and it is engineered. I have no reason to question the chaos item as it does everything that I expect of it and haven't experienced any problems. At the time it was better value than the competitors. I think that any aftermarket arm will be strong enough and as long as they are machined correctly, they will be trouble free.

75 series draglink with an 80 series end and core 4x4 tierod with 80 series ends. I used to run a cut down 80 series tierod but come to think of it, I think that the draglink may also be a cut down item but yeah it all works.

Oh and then the hydro assist ram connects to the tierod :D
