I'd seriously consider using  Johnny-Joints from Currie Enterprises or Evolution heim joints. Uber beefy and rebuildable.

Are they designed different?
Are they probably the same size?

Ok, read up on Johnny Joints on Curries website.
3 different sizes, 2, 2.5 and 3" rod ends.
How is the joint measures? Diameter?
