Yea ... The issue is most coils give more then advertised. My front was replaced but still running the stock rear at 3.5 w/ no pinion correction. Your jeep may be different.

I use the RK 2.5" Flex System and mine failed the first time I hit the trails. I guess it depends on how you use your Jeep. Know of several guys that are still running their front drive shaft after it failed.

I'm a firm believer that if its not broke, don't fix it...but if it failed, don't wait and replace. Since I travel almost 3 hours to go wheeling, I'm changing mine right away. Ordered a Coast 1310 and should be here on Tuesday, install on Wednesday and back to wheeling on Saturday.
