Question bump steer kits,safe,strong enough for rr,street?

i am about to purchase a bumpsteer kit and was wondering if they are as strong as a normal tie rod end seeing as they have a long bar or bolt betwwen end and knuckle.are they safe for road racing and street duty?

yea they are stong as hell, I had a bumpsteer kit on my car for years already and have yet to have one break or even have to change a rod end. I did have a rod end fail on my panhard bar though.
