RE: body post
The aluminum ones should last longer, but i'd say you should just get a new era roll bar

From what i've heard, they're very durable and you can use it with the body on or off, and you can also bash your truck with no body without worrying about smashing your engine or something...
Also, if you want aluminum body posts, then i would get the new era ones:

RE: body post
Aluminum posts are not such a great idea I think. The plastic ones flex and go back to original shape, where the aluminum ones just stay bent or break off. Replacing a plastic post is so much cheaper that it makes no sense to get aluminum. I have never broke a body post before, ever! Some luck there
