Teraflex Driveshafts vs. JE Reel
Okay so it is pretty simple, I drive a 2dr automatic jk and will be lifiting it to the point of having to replace the driveshafts. I am doing both instead of just the front and want to know which is prefered, the JE Reel driveshafts of the Teraflex ones. I see a lot of people running the JE Reel ones but everything I have it Teraflex and I am more than happy with all of their parts.
Input is GREATLY appreciated and thanks in advance for voting.

Whoo hoo I'm first
I voted JE Reel because I have their 1350's front and rear. So far I have had no problems with them. Don't know much about the Teraflex.

The Tera ones are made by someone else, but I can;t remember who. Either would be good IMO. I think differently on DS's though. I am not really into running huge joints on these dinky axles. If I have a break on the trail I would rather it be a Ujoint than a pinion or something. A couple 1310s are cheap, ez to change, and don't take up any room in the jeep.

I've been watching the drive shaft threads for a few months with interest because I know I'm going to need some sooner or later. I haven't anyone running the Teraflex shaft. I'm not sure why but my guess is because it's really just a rebadged version of a another shaft?
It's not scientific but it seems like about 30% of the JE Reel owners had problems or regretted purchasing them. It seems like the Tom Woods owners ahve all been satisfied with them.
Again this is just the general feel I got from watching the drive shaft threads for a few months. So I'd personally love to hear more input myself.

Totally satisfied with the JE Reel 1310HD front and 1350 rear.
I'm running 7.1 degrees of caster up front and the driveshaft(s) are smoother than stock! My advice, just don't use the factory flanges, get the yokes!
