I'm actually thinking of building my own at the moment... The FJ people seem to like them a lot.

They work great to free up the suspension travel. Makes a notable difference when offroad. I might try swaybar relocation brackets to line up the links better.

I would say the lack of relocate blocks is contributing to the noise you hear. How long have you been running the links?

Probably just the rasping a bit. The clunking won't go away. The clunking is the end links reaching the end of their range of motion while the A-arm still wants to drop out or raise up further in relation to the other A-arm. I want to relocate the blocks to not put so much angular stress on the heim at full compression because it starts to bind up at the heim. I just don't want it to break on the trail and take something important out. I've run them for a year.
