because I have bought from them before and they are not very precise and don't clean up there work very well and some of their welds are sloppy and I have ad burs on things from them, also bought a steering box spacer and the actual spacers welded to the bracket were ground crooked and o.e welded crooked and I have a hell of a time getting the bolt in

That's what I want to hear! Hopefully mine will provide years of service....along with the drive train lol.

What color did you paint it if you don't mind me asking. I usually have everything black but my current tie rod is maroon just like the jeep. Not sure if I want to go that route this time around.
