I can vouch for the Lundsfod Ti Turnbuckles. They have been on the front since the begining for me.

I am using the Lunsford Ti turnbuckles. So far, so good. I wont be able to put them to the real test until Spring......when i hit the BMX track and the race track......I bent the stock ones on the 5th tank....clipped the light pole in my front yard [&o]

Ive bent the stock ones before too, so I bought the New Era's when I also got their arms too.
They have been on my truck for about 1 gallon of track practice/racing and have had no problems with them!

If you don't run into things they won't break. Still have the original stockers on mine.
