I noticed when I had my CRC that the molded Side Links had to be replaced regularly as they were prone to tweaking or wallowing the holes a little themselves, plus you have to watch the wear of the aluminum balls they attached to as well.

I think the 10/12R5 molded links are better than CRC's since it is more closely related to the SpeedMerchant type, using a larger ball/eyelink allowing for a higher tolerance fit that will not wear quickly, and they will not flex much at all laterally compared to the CRC's molded link, which flex's right from the start.
