Hey all! Ended up breaking a chromoly rear shaft this past weekend on the old turdy five. Ive been searching high and low for a chromo replacement but looks like either no one is making them for the non c clip axle anymore or they backordered everywhere. Am i screwed or does anyone have any other suggestions? I have an 8.8 I'm going to build but was hoping to put it off a little longer if possible. I have a stock replacement but am guessing that won't last too long with my heavy foot haha.

Using heims. Used a reamer to drill the knuckle to 5/8.

Yea I had the thought of using TRE's instead but I had to ream the knuckles to install the heims. Whatever next setup I use when I swap out the front axle will def be TRE's

I just installed what came in the kit so I assume they are correct. The hole size was a nice tight fit, reamer didn't wander or anything. The problem is more that the entire assembly kinda flops up and down, not side to side. Steering feels nice and tight, no DW or wandering or anything.

I should say only reason i took mine out is i was chasing a squeak in the drivetrain and thought maybe that was it. Turned out to be something else.

There are a few cad delete kits out there, not sure which is best but i believe they are all generally the same, i forget which one i used. i ordered a 97 xj shaft, ended up ditching the helper bearing, was kind of a pita to get out. I ended up using a dremel to cut the bearing cage and pried it out in pieces thru the cad opening.

Anyone else with their crossover steering have their rods just kinda flopping around when installed. Got everything tight and loctited, got the heims clocked as far as i can but there is still a good bit of movement in the heims so it sounds terrible when I'm going wheeling or going over speed bumps on pavement. Been searching but can't find anyone else with the issue really. Maybe i got a bad set of heims? Emailed cavfab and they said "thats normal try clocking the heims more". can't be right it sounds like the front end is going to come apart when i hit a big bump.

Dang they have gone up in price. I think i paid $700 for mine and about $250 shipping. They are great quality tho.

Lew at Alcan was pretty responsive with me throughout. They had some delays but he made sure to let me know what was going on. His email is lew@alcanspring.com maybe try that one? Love their springs they ride like butter on and off the trail

Day trip today lots of fun and the MJ worked beautifully!

Indeed! Keepin my eye out for some 4.10 axles at the moment but rockrails def coming in the future.

One last addition, found a good deal on this winch, pretty much done for now, time to enjoy! Also couple pics from a recent trip to Iron Mountain Park in North Ga...

Well real enough for 32's haha. Choccolocco is probably as close as I can get to my old Tellico days, all I can do is dream of Lower 2 and Slickrock

A few more goodies. Just opted to throw some chromo shafts and an aussie locker in the 35 for now, I figure that should be plenty strong enough for 32's. Also just went with Rustys steering upgrade for now because it was available and direct bolt on. Next phase will hopefully be a built soa 44 in the rear and I am going to start working on just beefing up the front 30 with shafts and a locker as money allows, and eventually going to go long arm in the front and bigger meats. Thought I had a bolt in the carrier of the 35 but its a roll pin so I need to head to ACE to get a replacement. Also still waiting on the other shaft to arrive (FedEx is the worst). Hoping to take it to do some real wheeling in the next month or two.
