daily driving is more harsh to your suspension then driving hard on a smooth track

Kinda hard to get a opinion based on that, I think I would be hard to screw some simple parts up. As long as the welds look good and if you don't see any defects in the base metal, If the knuckles look good and function well. I would order from somewhere that would accept returns and if they looked good use them, if not send them back. But be sure you take good notes on the products and give us a good review of them.

99.9% of places won't let you return them once you have used them. Some places don't let you return them as soon as you open the box.

If we don't hear from you for a while, we'll assume they failed put you into a wall and you're in the hospital.
