Rear link upgrades

Anyone out there have any likes dislikes with regards to the various beefier rear links available. All pro seem decent go the price. Icons look awsome but price. Anyone have recommendations? Just looking to beef up the noticeably wimpy oem ones. Thanks for your thoughts.

Ok So we installed my Toy Outfitter Rear Links over the weekend. I didn't realize that the stock ones were so bent until I pulled them off. Thanks BZ

My buddy has changed plans due to the cost of living and is moving to reno instead. I bought my link mounts from ruff stuff and had them welded on by predator offroad in auburn. they are 1/4" plate and very beefy.

Dude i think you put them on wrong. The zerk shouldnt be hanging down like that, it will gef ripped off. Not sure but you may want to double check that.

You'll need to have the zerks facing upwards which means when you want to grease them, you'll need to drop the LCA, unless you have a greese gun that can snake in and access the zerk.
