I would contact Whiteline, as they have a very good customer service department, they will replace them for you for free.

I'd rather pay for a set of SPLs than buy another set of Whitelines. They aren't a good part on this platform. They make good parts in general. These are just a rare misstep.

Well free is free, but I understand, they do have rare mis-steps like that. Next time our rep calls us up I will make sure to have a discussion about these parts specifically and see what their take on the issue is.

They need to look at their balljoint supplier. I can't see them making their own. The threaded portion of the end link needs to be a harder metal as well.

Sounds like a few tie rod ends used for camber kits. Kinetix and ams use cast while spl uses forged. Big different in a safety component if it snaps.
