they get rapped pretty good on the buggy. i do have bushings on one end that i replace often. 3/4 heims on the steering didnt last, the 7/8" last longer but after 150 race miles they are starting to loosen up.
all the 1.25" heims i have on the buggy are original. i did the front first, then the rear.
in my opinion, all ballistic / jonny joint / ball end things / bushings are junk compared to the ruff stuff 1.25 heims.
things made for street jeeps are not made for flogging.
