Not quite sure how they are going to ride any smoother then rubber press in bushings.

I was wondering the same thing. They could give you more articulation and be much quieter than the typical "groaning" poly bushing I have on a Heidt rear four link. Even after greasing it doen't take long till they are noisy again. I thought I saw Art Moorison is offering them on their four links now.

Page 23 of their catalog show the rod end options with features and benefits.

Apparently Strange Engineering is the original designer of the Johnny Joint.

In a 4 link application they work great. The OP talked about using them on his upper control arms in place of his rod ends.
