have run orbit eyes since I worked at AOR (the original designer of the orbit eye) 5 years ago. They hold up great, well worth the money! Buy it once and never touch it again! Charles at alcan is a great guy and stands behind his product 100%
the only thing you don't want to do is run orbit eyes in both ends of your front springs, I prefer to have them on the solid mount ends with poly bushings in both the frame and shackle eyelets

I've got the TG creeper joints for the rear but haven't gotten to install them yet.
I think I've got a bent rear spring from the years of doing this to them...
The creeper joints will help relieve that spring stress big time & and get me some extra articulation.
