Default Install vansteel hardbar spring adjustment bolts or not

Im going to be doing a lot of suspension work soon and have a set of hardbar spring adjusters that Ill have the opportunity to add...

Ive read a few complaints about some folks getting wear on the control arms and would like to know more peoples opinions... It seems like vansteel would stop making and selling these things if there was a real or common problem; is this "wear" some minimal thing that eventually stops? do the parts need a dry film lube?

If these are not a good choice Ill go with another brand of delrin adjusters, however I am set on avoiding the oem rubber or poly bolts, and using these will save me enough cash to be able to upgrade my shocks from the factory z06 units

thanks!

I'd get a piece of steel (stainless likely) and bond it to the arm's pad where the thing rides. replace it when it wears.
