i use heims on just about every project that i've done 4-link on street rods to crawlers to my lil toyota and i've not had any problems at all. just make sure that they are chromemoly, and if you have a 3/4 ton 1" is the liteist i would go with. and use good bungs, don't just weld a nut into the end of the bars you use. im biulding two yotas know with 1" hiems and 14" kings on each end, there goin to be full blown show trucks. good luck!!!.

Yeh I was thinking heims before, just didnt know how strong or how long they will last though. They arent really servicable so I would say after some driving time they would have some slop eventually....

I was thinking 1" Chomroly heims for the project of some type of 1.5" or 2" bushing... wasnt sure...

As for the kelderman airbag kits, i dont see myself paying 6+ grand on a setup I can built for a grand just need time... hahahha It is a nice ass kit though...

if you get the teflon style heim joints there rebuildable, you just dont want to get in the mud to much with them because the mud will get it the teflon and eat it away, then you got a a mess to deal with. if you do put a good plastic bag over them and zip tie it do the bar, it helps. i've not had any prob's out of them. you take most of you custom off the wall customs like foose custom build cars they use them but they make sure they get high end heims. the bushing is going to wear a lot more than the heims. research it. but the kelderman kits use the same on some of there kits, not all, i think you can upgrade to heims on them. i got a 1 ton 87 chevy that i've got to do next month and we are going to use 1.5 heims and 54" boggers on it and single bypass kings, but he is goin to mud/truck pull it. not goin to be legal in va thou.use 3/8" or 1/2" tabs. just incase you sell it and they wheel it, you never no when it could come back on ya. but good luck
