Personally no, on the basis that the forces that would have been absorbed by the rubber bushes have to be absorbed somewhere else by components not designed to. My current ARB bushes have lasted 100k since replacement so it's not worth taking the risk in my opinion. Having said that plenty of others have so it's up to you I suppose!-------------------------------------------------------------------

I ran with orange ones on the rear not sure from which manufacture with rubber at the front no problems, I now have Super pro on the front still no problems there may be some loading on them in certain circumstances but mostly the torsional opposite and equal loading is taken by the ball jointed links at each end and they do take a lot of load failing often especially if you don't replace with original ones. There is no noticeable extra noise or vibration after replacing both ends and hopefully will last longer the super pro ones are better thought out than others and you must use the grease that comes with them so that as the torsion bar rotates there are no squeaks.

I've fitted quite a few sets now with H/D drop links and no reported problems
