Do you just fabricate them longer ? Stronger ? Can you eliminate that boot thing from future rips? Ballpark what does something like this run?

Both. I want to get new front and rear and buy it one time so that it doesn't keep breaking.

X2 on the JE Reel they are rock solid and smooth. Easy install if you want to do it yourself just be sure to follow the torque specs.
