Who has used the RE super joint on a 4 link system instead of rod ends?

I am wondering what the duribility and longevity is on them vs. a rod end.

They seem to be superior to jonny joints in that the preload is adjustable and they are greasable. Only a 9/16 bolt though so i am wondering how they will hold up compaired to a 5/8"x3/4" rod end.

i was wonderin the same thing.

im building a long arm and was lookin at using johnny joints instead of rod ends. i think they are longer lasting and may even be cheaper over time seein as how they can be rebuilt and one of the best things is they act as bushings where as a rod end is metal to metal contact. ive heard they get pretty good reviews but ive never seen them compared to rod ends.
