So I actually broke a Lundsford punisher turnbuckle...
I scored a set of Lundsford hinge pins and regular (Punisher, not super duty) turnbuckles for my 10T build that I'm still gathering parts for, and I was wondering if the AE Factory Team blue titanium turnbuckles are any stronger?

Re: Lundsford punisher Vs. Factory Team Ti Turnbuckles
I don't know which are stronger, but I have a feeling that if you manage to break either the lundsford or the Factory Team parts you have other things to worry about!

Re: Lundsford punisher Vs. Factory Team Ti Turnbuckles
I know that titanium is very strong, but it is quite brittle.
Also the RCPS titanium tie rods that came with my 10T are in fact much weaker and succeptible to bending than the regular Lundsford punisher ones.

This will explain what happened:

I've heard of them bending, but I never expected this:
I'm going to pick up a set of the Lundsford Super Duty Plus turnbuckles so that hopefully this doesn't happen again!

Re: So I actually broke a Lundsford punisher turnbuckle...
Thank you and thanks to Bearrickster, I should have known they would have a great warranty.
I'm still going to run the super-dutys from now on; I don't feel like having my truck down whilst waiting for warranty parts to return.
The punishers will wind-up on my recently-acquired mint 10T shelfer!
