Well yesterday I broke another front axle. I give up on running stock axleshafts. What does everyone recommend? Alloy USA? G2? A lot of my friends are running superior but I guess they aren't around anymore. Also any contributing vendors selling chromoly shafts?
Let's hear opinions......
Thanx

I've had good luck with Yukon's stuff and from what I understand their "hardcore" line is the old Warn axle shaft line (I'm sure Mesha could verify?). I ran D44 warns and CTMs with 38" SX's over the life of my last buggy with no breaks.

If the used RCVs don't work out it am happy to get you a quote. Let me know. The Yukon 4340 hardcore series has a good track record. We can also at you up with some super joints at the same time for a pretty bulletproof solution.

mesha, yukon only has a year warranty correct? any experience with factory ten? please send me a quote! Probably wont do joints at this time other than standard. Im going with a group to build homes in mexico between christmas and new years so dont want to spend anything extra right now.

My 4340 and super joint had a bad weekend... anyone have experience with their warranty? Really not excited about replacing a $300 joint.

I would go through whoever you purchased them from. If you have the original invoice the warranty process is super fast and painless

We are a dealer for longfield D60 U-joints. Best out there period. Installation and maintenance a breeze.

4340 shafts, I would say 85% are import. Proof of actual domestic material is getting questionable. We machine down used shafts that are import and domestic 4340. There is a difference.

Go with the best warranty
