Default Draglink Upgrades?

Anyone know of any draglink upgrades available? Lately I seem to be bending them every time I go out wheeling. Have already done two and the one I have atm has been straightened but looks like its going to go again pretty soon. I dont know why it keeps happening but looking for something with some more strength.

I'm about to do a flip using Toyota tie rod ends, with a separate tie rod & draglink. Dropping off all the bits to a local engineering shop tomorrow. If it works I will have replicas available.

thats a inverted T.. to make it fit you will have to re mount your sway bar mounts on a dana 30.

plus raise the panhard mount on the diff?? Then after all that, is it really worth keeping the dana 30 or swapping it out for something bigger?
