I had a Stonecrusher set up on my EB axle. I was very pleased. And Anthony was a great guy to deal with. If you call him he will most likely ask you to measure your existing tie rod to be sure you get the correct one. There are a few variables that make a small difference in the lengths. :biggthumpup::biggthumpup::biggthumpup:

JP - you can have an even heavier duty drive shaft built locally. Then if anything does happen you've got a front door to walk in with it and show them and have it repaired without shipping coast to coast. Just my 2 cents.

x2 look in the phone book under driveline. or see if there is a fleet pride in your area. they build them. just tell them what its used for and tell them about the other dozen you have broken. they can hook you up. :xyxthumbs:

I will say this about drive shaft shops, I have had a fleet pride make one for me with longer splines to fit my lift. With my manual vavle body and agressive style of driving it wore out in about year. They felt it wasnt under warrenty since it was used off road.
So I ordered one from a bronco vender. Again a year or so later it had play in the slip yoke area, they exchanged it under warranty. This happend 3 times with that vendor. The final time they told me they were giving me back my money since there product could not last in my bronco. I gave Tom Woods a call, spoke to him personaly. Told him the whole story, he said since I had been having all that trouble getting a shaft to last, He would up my warrenty from 1 year too 3 years. It has been 5 years and its just now starting to show its age. Some things, you get what you pay for. By the way he price matched to the bronco vendors price. Just my experiance and 2c.
