Ok....I'll do that.

I just like watching the predictability of this place. If anyone says that one vendors product is better than a product of a JK-forum sponsored product, you can expect to get jumped on, no matter what the statement is.

Ok.....now I need to go find a life.

Its funny that you are a employee of another website and your on here "trying to stir the pot"

Grow up!

Also I did not see any vendor protection all I read was calling you out on your BS statement.

Have a good day..... Somewhere else.

Thanks. That makes me feel a little better about it. I just wish there were more information. It doesn't seem like there is much information out there on drive shafts -- maybe its simple enough there doesn't need to be. Am I making it too complicate? I always thought you needed to provide a bunch of measurements to get new drive shafts.

With people like you making baseless slanderous statements without documentation or proof of such, it is important to be around and protect our vendors.

Are new drive shafts something a average person with average tools can do? Should I take it to a shop?

What about the warranty? Do you think everything else, other then the new shafts of course, are still covered under the lifetime powertrain warranty?

I would think that stronger driveshafts would void your warranty on the drivetrain - at least the transfer case and differentials. Of course, lifting the Jeep in the first place voids the warranty on the suspension, etc... so I wouldn't think this would be a big deal.

The "void the warranty" thing has been trashed countless times. It will not necessarily void your warranty. Google the web or search this site - plenty of good explanations on how you are protected. Here's a few discussions - tip of the iceberg:
