I was messing around on internet and got to thinkin(oh no). I got on some circle trank suspension sites and seen the 5/8 swedged tubes. i was thinking could these work on Jeeps? i have seen lengths up to 27 inches and little as 2,3 inches long. I was part of a race team for 9 years with my brother and we used these tubes with 5/8 heim joints on our race cars and never had trouble with them. I know they probably wouldnt take the abuse of hard core wheelin esp. the rocks, but just thinking.

You could use it for top links. It would be strong enough for that. I wouldn't want to try to make any long arms out of it though.
