I must admit- your inner arm adjuster is a great thing.
Most people use McGill motorsports rod ends- & the 'premium' range ones.
Original arm ends are mig welded - so mig welding any changes is perfectly acceptable.
The original arms are hopelessly weak- so any strengthening (without too much compromise on weight) can only be a good thing.

The thing people forget about altering a beam and arms is the time. even with proper jig sets - it still takes a good few hours to complete. & this is where some of the cost differences come in.

As said before, going to an adjustable beam (of any) wont make your car handle worse - unless you make a pigs ear of setting it up.
