Going to sell my Air Shocks and my Alloy Shafts and get some RCV's. Then hopefullyit will be fun to wheel again... without worrying about the front end all the time.

AllJeep.com will never get a penny from me after how they treated my brother.


i'm done messing with POS u-joints and axle shafts. It's RCV's, a 60, or sell it. I think RCV's are the easy way out.

How much are you looking to get out of your air shocks?
Glad to hear you changed your mind!

Dang, sorry to hear that They've treated me well in the past but tell me your experience later.

Well you know I'll hook you up on that Dana 60 if you go that way.

i want rcv's i think i may even have the wife on board, i guess ill know around tax time next year
i could prolly get away with a decent set of alloys but just dont want the worry especially with the risk of taking out the detroit in the front.

My detroit has held up awesome. I've snapped the inner splines off in the detroit. I stuck a magnet down the tube and pulled the chunk of shaft out of the detroit in one piece. It will be interesting once I get RCV's to see what the next weak link is... probably just keep hubs on it and hope they break before the ring and pinion.

i agree about alljeep.com don't get anything from them.


and here's a thought, go back to a lighter better tire and throw in some actual strong shafts and some 300m's and go wheel
