I was perusing the RN mag just last night and noticed a lot of decent looking ProLine parts. The panhard rod especially caught my eye. $99 for an adjustable panhard with poly bushings at each end, I may be buying one.

I really need to start stripping my truck. Gonna have a fair amount of parts for sale when I do.

I was looking at the same catalog, is it possible to just beef up my stock arms? Sleeve them?

That price on the prolines is same as I usually see on used rovertyme, just wondering how resistant to bending

The ProLine and old RoverTracks are nearly identical. Both are "cranked", as are the RTE. Cranking them does two things.
1) it alleviates bushing bind which is prominent in lifted Rovers.
2) the arms get up out of the way of rocks.

So you could sleeve your stock ones but you wouldn't reap either of the above benefits.
I would say they're pretty robust and resistant to bending. Pretty much anything beefier and cranked will be better than stock.
