So how long do rod ends last? A year or two?

But even before they start to rattle, arent rod ends the best rear suspension solution for fixing bind issues? (in A bodys)

So far from this thread i've come up with an idea for my U/L control arm and bushing set up. For my UCA's i'm looking at the Currie Enterprise double adj. with Curries Jonny Joint, i guess i'll be using rubber bushings for the axel end. Then for my LCA's im going to be building a set with rod ends on all corners, built with parts from Speedway Motors. I'm looking at the 3/4" threaded sleeves, but for rod ends im still unclear of what i should look for in their construction, Speedway has a number of rod ends and i have no clue what to look for, they have steel, female, male, precision, and heat treated rod ends. Whats the difference, and how can you tell?

Which rod ends would anyone recommend for a daily driver partially tracked car?
Or should i look somewhere else that has better rod ends, i noticed Marcus SC&C mentioned QA1...
