It will be cheaper to buy directly from rc at 1450 minus 150 bucks for the cherokeeforum discount they give which i think is 10 percent. Then get a sye and shaft separate. I got a custom shaft and sye combo for like 350 bucks on ebay. Heck looking back I kind of wish I just used a front xj shaft in the rear they are pretty dang strong probably close to a custom shaft strength.
Also something to note. I have personally had rough country uca's with their x joints for less than a year and had to rebuild them 4 times already and don't wheel it super hard. Granted my experience is not the norm but I am just saying you usually get what you pay for so it might be worth going for something a little higher quality if you wheel it much.
