Hi,
Just wondering how well the two brands hold up in the winter against salt and slush - is the hardware stainless steel or will they rust?
You should give Dustin at AutoxCooper a call. He carries both types of endlinks that you mention and he is always happy to share his experience with you. He is out of Chicago so he should have plenty of experience with salt and corrosion exposure on the different parts.

I'll save you a call. Both arms, in fact most arms, will hold up well to winters in the great white north. The only part of both/most arms that might rust over many winters is the jam nuts.
