The only tips I can give are to not use the turnbuckles that come with the RPM arms. Buy Lunsford now or you will wish you did shortly. I busted 2 of the RPM ones within the first tank of running after installing the arms. I was very sad when I had to dremel little slices into my new RPM arms to create a flat screw head out of the top of the stub that busted off in the arm.

Yes, they are $7 a piece. Totally worth it. I've been running them for about 9 months (9 gallons'ish of hard bashing) and haven't had an issue with either the arms or the turnbuckles since I installed the lunsford.

You may be able to find them cheaper somewhere else, but if I had it to do over again, I wouldn't have wasted my time trying the ones that came with the arms. I'd have just thrown them away.
 
also you should use them because, ropm has a lifetime warranty on all products so if you bust a camber connector you can send the arm in and they will send you a new one


also from above i have had mine on for 8 gallons and have hit the crap out of things and all i have dont was bend mine....

but definately worth it, only had one lower arm break from a 40 foot drop and the only reason in broke was because my springs were way way to tight...

They don't warranty the turnbuckle I don't believe. Only the plastic parts.

Lunsford however... I believe they have a warranty on their turnbuckles.

EDIT:
Yep - Lunsford Warranty Page
