Default Drive Shafts with U-Joints are on the Way

As many of you know by now, some brain child at DC thought it would be a good idea to ditch the U-joints on the drive shafts and toss in a set of CV joints instead. Yeah - good one Anyway, I never had any doubts that most of the manufacturers out there would be jumping all over this brain fart but what I didn't realize up until today was how soon they would have product available. Can you say by SEMA?

Can't name any names yet but you can be sure to hear the official word at Project-JK.com

Thats great news. I had read about the whole CV thing. I was disappointed and considered giving up being a Jeeper! Aftermarket coming out with OG u joint setup is music to my ears. I don't get it...it didn't fail Jeep for how many decades?? It wasn't broken...so why fix it?

Can someone explain to a newbie what the difference is and why CV joints are bad?
