Sure they don't mean aluminum? I'm not aware of any stainless steel, but the aluminum rods don't take much, if any, play out; the aluminum knuckles do more for that.

Aluminum cups don't take out slop but are more durable, which becomes important when you add lithium for power.

Knuckles take out the steering slop. They are designed to fit right over the stock tie rod so with either stock or alum tie rod, the alum knuckles look like they remove the steering slop.

You don't need suspension arms to take out slop. The aluminum ones actually have similar play to the plastic ones, as you can't really tighten those screws too much lest you tighten the play in the arm (although washers *can* help a bit there)
