I bent my flanges, I don't jump the thing but I do slowly crawl through some tight stuff. Side load bent flanges. I'm lookin for opinions here from what ya have experienced or have heard. I am leaning toward Alloy or 10 factory chromoly. I have been advised not to go superior. Let me know your opinion.

 

Superior only warrantys their stuff for manufacturer defects only. I know quit a few people who have bent rear superior evolution shafts on 35s and 37s, and were told to pound sand when they asked about replacement. Don't know the details on the ten factory shaft's warranty or the alloy usa.

 

Thats what I'm being told as well, broken or manufacture defects ok, but bent flanges, they (all) will not replace. Now I just gotta find a brand thats better than the rest. Any suggestions out there?

 

I'd call Ten Factory and ask about their warranty(10yrs) Northridge sells these axles. Maybe call David at Northridge 4x4 aswell. It's listed to have a 10yr warranty if bought direct from Ten Factory.

 

Who makes the dual drilled shafts? I think a 5x5.5 option would be a great selling point for future modding. (assuming decent quality and warranty, of course).

 

I went with Foote chromos and I got them from Northridge. I bent my factory rear flange but these seem to be holding up well.

 

Ten Factory has a ten year no questions asked warranty

 

Dave, your alive, I called earlier but I figured cause of the holiday you were busy, I am interested in Foote or 10 Factory. Now are you sure if I bend another flange they will replace it.

 

^^ This. Daves the man & sold me on 10 factory. Just installed frt & rr axles & Dynatracs on my Rubi after the 37" upgrades. Dont forget the frt 10 factory axles for the Rubi, run the larger U joint, Superior runs the smaller U joints in the front for the Rubi's. Just my 2 cents, but I vote 10 factory.

Oh, and my axles were drilled for both patterns, BTW..

 

Thanks, Hwyman, It's lookin like ten factory, I'm diggin around on the net for what people have to say about stuff.
