Has anyone changed out their stock 4 door driveshafts??? I looking into it and was wondering who you went through and the cost for both with new flanges.

 

How about these 1310 OE replacements? No flange replacement. I like the idea of using the OEM replacement shafts and carrying the stockers as spares.

 

Thank you.......

 

Drive shaft up grade is a good choice are you going with 1310 or 1350s?

 

Probably 1310's. They worked great on my TJ and It saw the hammers and numerous trails in the central sierra's.

 

would someone mind explaining the benefits of upgrading to me? I'm quite new to this and it would be helpful..

 

The cv joints in the stock JK driveshafts are not very good. If you play hard, they will break.

 

I went with the 1350 JE Reel driveshafts. Check out the prices from Northridge thats where I got mine.

 

If you drive a 2-door, be prepared to change your rear upper control arms or you'll recieve massive vibration at anything over 10MPH. Believe me, I did it. So plan on spending another $250. The reason why is well explained on Tom Woods Custom Drive Shafts web site. http://<span style="color:Silver">ww...aft.com</span> Look under 'tech info', then driveline geometry 101.

I returned my drivelines to Reel because I was so upset they didn't tell me this on the phone, then argued with me that they did. I know what I was told, so please don't tell me something else Scott!

I wish their web site was as good as Toms.

Anyway, just a fair warning......

What causes the vibration the angle and the upper control arms change the angle??
