I went with heim joints replacing the tierods on my Joyner only because this is what I could find after breaking a tierod at the bash this past June. I don't see the heims lasting any longer then the tierod except when I sheared the stud the tie rod was toast but with the heim I can replace the bolt securing it. The yerf had bad ball joints to begin with for our type of ridding. A heavy duty ball joint is available for the yerf and if replaced you would probably never need another. The balljoints would be more but to convert to heims would require some fab work.
