[QUOTE="cpwolf, post: 429193, member: 19674"] TRE. There are applications for both, but in your layout, a Heim joint will take a lot, lot more maintenance. TREs you grease like both of the above agreed, and that is the maintenance. Heim might provide a tiny bit more performance, but that would only be beneficial in you're competing hard core somehow, and had a crew tightening and cleaning the joint all the time. We have them on hunting buggies in West Texas, like Dune Buggy type things, and they get regular maintenance, I still wish we had TREs (everything out there has a nasty thorn, so anything rubber gets shredded in about 30 seconds, ha) but the boots get shredded.
