Default Aftermarket a arms for drag racing

Can't seem to find a definitive answer. I can freshen up my upper and lower a arms with moog bushings and ball joints or buy a set of rod end tubular. Is there going to be any real world benefit for drag racing with tubular rod end front a arm suspension or should I just rebuild what I got. I already have all the bushings on hand. Thanks.

A arms with rod ends will allow the suspension to move up and down without the binding that you would have with rubber bushings. Pluss tubular A arms are a little liter.

If you are street strip and occasional drag racing, and don't care if your 60ft is a few thousandths slower you can rebuild your stock arms and enjoy it.

For ultimate reaction time, smoothness, etc. it's best to go with a good tubular.
