I've been running 3rd's arm since start of last year. The only thing I noticed is that I pushed the arms into the chassis. To fix it I just welded some 5mm plate into the chassis to strengthen it and replaced the bearings in the knuckles with normal rubber radius arm bushes. I've had no problems since. It doesn't allow it to flex much more than nomal but it flexes a lot easier which keeps the vehicle more stable through rough stuff. They are massively stronger than standard and you have a choice of 3 or 4 degree castor correction. PM me if you have any more questions or you can call Fernando at 3rd's (the owner). His number is on his web site.
