Just needed opinions. I really believe one piece is stronger.

The Inet ones rock! The RC4wd ones need to be ground for full turning and several of the Co. locals have broke them.

I just ordered the INET ones. I havent put them on yet - Santa is bringing them to me.
I cant say which is better.
But the one piece seems stronger - less screws to loosen and it seems like one machined piece would be stronger anyways.
just my .02

GPM or Inet hands down, think about it.
  1. Cheaper by far $16.88 a set.
  2. Fit and finish is far better then the rc4wd ones.
  3. No arm screws to loosen, strip, or snap.
  4. Large beefy king pins

I bought my GPM's from here.

I like them better because w/ the inet/gpm ones the screws that hold the knuckle in place always back out and strip the knuckle threads. I have never stripped the rc4wd's. I will say u have to grind more of the rc4wd's to gain full steering. U only have to grind a little off the inets.
