But if the Roto joints are quiet, I might go for these.

Yes, the Roto-Joints are rebuildable (If this is ever needed) and the polyurethane bushings can be replaced if ever needed as well.
If you still have those control arms with the rod ends we can sell you a Roto-Joint to screw in the rod ends place. If not the Roto-Joint works very well, it is very quiet and street friendly. I think you would be very happy with them.
The control arms above with the Roto-Joint will be a little more street friendly. This is because the have a polyurethane bushing on one end with absorbs the road noise... they are also less expensive. The double Roto-Joint is also street friendly but since there is no polyurethane bushings the rid could be a little stiffer. The Roto-Joint on both ends would perform better in autocross type driving.

Hello
I take it you mean 2 adjustment options. Everything that we use is hardened and zinc plated to not only maintain superior strength but also protect the product itself. We have not had any issues strength wise. If you have any other questions feel free to ask!
Thanks
Brad

Like Brad had mentioned many of our items are hardened for increased strength. The adjuster in the center, threads and threaded tube adapters are all machined from 4140 chrome moly. The adjuster is heat treated for additional strength and 4140 is chosen on the threads for increased durability. Overall many of these items are overkill for there application.
Hope that helps,
Ryan
