And so can I.......and probably everyone else 
Something tells me you won't have a problem finding volunteers. Definitely need a set either way..

Sending a couple sets out here would allow Fish and I to test for you. The data would certainly be from the two extremes-One showing a DD and the other off-road prowess.

Fish is actually one of the 2, and McCartney is the other...
My factory links finally died in the front, so I'm a 4th...
These are just not something that I'm super-confident in (being that another vendor sent Kyle like 5 different itterations that all failed, except the last ones that he hasn't run much), so I'm trying to get as much testing on them as I can before I sell them as a product...
Thanks,
Mike

aww, I am even local and could have field tested a week ago with you. 
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.

Mine have been holding up just fine. Ease of disco'ing the swaybar is awesome. If there is any clunking, which there hasn't been that I notice, its covered by the hum of the MT's. Very happy with them.
Thanks again Mike for another great product.

Any idea on what the ballpark price will be for these, once they are through testing?
I need to get some new links, and was all set on going with SMaxx. Just wanted to get the scoop on these before I pull the trigger on the other.

Got my testing set installed today. Very easy install, as well as very easy to take out and put back in. Very nice product. Cant wait to get more testing time on them. Hardest part was removing stock links.

Mike, where did you get the pins from? One of mine got bent and however it hit the swaybar the ring broke loose and now I don't know where it is... Have tried hardware stores and a Tractor Supply but all they all had was too big or way too small.

They're just 3/16" pins from Tractor Supply or Rural King... I've gotten them both places, locally...
