Cool The great debate

I know it's a popular mod , but in my opinion great if you were fabing up a arms from scratch with HEAVY wall chome moly . On stock thin wall mild steel a arms I can't see the benefit , surface area is reduced down to the diameter of the bung , and don't forget you're gonna be drilling through the back side of the tube for the threaded end to protude . My opinion : Reinforced tabs and good ball joints are better . More and broader surface area to distribute the work load . If riding hard enough to rip a tab off I think the arm will fail where drilled and bung welded in . Thin tubing !
