100% agree! If your rig is KNOWN to have a weak point, you may want to consider for that sake. Other than that, upgrade what breaks. Good rule of thumb, keep the aluminum parts for a shelf queen. There are some cases where the aluminum strengthens the kit in a positive way. Most of the time, they just bend up and will break the parts that they are attached to. Cause more trouble than they are worth. Also are typically heavier than the parts they replace.
