I still have to get a replacement front shaft made up (only due to the angle of the tcase end, not the strength).

    Now if i can stop the computer going into service 4wd mode everytime i hit mud ill be happy!

    Glad to hear everything's working out. I'm more worried long term for the arms.... wouldn't necessarily claim victory after one wheeling trip.

    You did remind me that I need to get a new front driveshaft though. All the grease has flung out of mine so it's just a matter of time....

    I didnt give the front end any kind of consideration on this one, just wheeled it without concern, so i highly recommend them!

    Thanks for reporting back, this is great news! I know it's only one wheeling trip, but from some of the pictures you've posted in the past, I'm sure you put them through their paces.

    I have sent mine both back to rcv. Mine are throwing way to much grease plus I had a bid vibration under acceleration. They have reported back and said they found a problem with both of them and are making me new ones.

    Here is a picture of what it would look like in 1 day driving to and from work. Total miles 20. I just got sick of all the grease going everywhere.
