That make perfect sense more time in the build less time under the vehicle later on. The added plus ti this being a cleaner build.
Lately it seems that almost everyone is going to the heims they think they offer a racier look most don't use them as drivers though or in the case of rock crawlers and other extreme builds field replacement plus the semi forgiving range of angularity when a suspension part is stressed outside of its intended plane of articulation Heims can be a better choice for them even with the higher maintenance.
It's still good to know that not everyone has gone the way of just bolt it together then deal with their decisions forever.
