yeah, I'm on the brink of ordering one. Could use any info on lift and if it really failed or not. I now plan on dropping back down onto my stock springs and using this to repair my current driveshaft, as Northridge basically told me, if I'm trashing the stock one with my lift, this one might last longer, but will still get trashed eventually. So I think I will get it and drop down on my stock springs for now, but only if this guy's didn't fail at stock ride height.

I have the Teraflex joint sitting in my garage right now. Will be doing the mod to my front drive shaft sometime within the next 4 days. 2 door on 2.5" AEV lift but soon going to 3-3.5".

2 door and it is lifted. My guess 3+ because of the failure.
