There no way my titaniun ue turnbuckles are lighter than my ue 7075 turnbuckles. How do you figure ti is lighter than aluminum. Maybe a your figuring it take less titanium to be as strong as aluminum which is true. The nice thing about ti is when its hit hard it usually flexes back into shape for example your ti skids. If they were good quality aluminum they be bent for sure. yes you can bend them back but only a few times before they work harden and break off. Titanium is some tough stuff I heard they use it in the bottom pan of hummers to make them more bomb proof not sure if it true but it kinda make sence to me. Chromoly steel is way lighter and stronger than regular steel. Not sure about it compared to titanium.
