Totally agree...that's why I went with these.

These tubes are made of strong, swedged DOM steel with a gold anodized finish for looks and durability.
I was always a little leary of the sets that MikeR designed simply because of the material he used and those same ball socketed ends. The dirt track boys go through these on a regular basis especially when they go the cheaper route and use the SS or aluminum rods which tend to strip easier then the chromoly ones.
