I have them. I bent a flange on one of their shafts and they sent me a new shaft under warranty along with a new tone ring, seal, and bearing... but unassembled so I had to press it all together before I could install.

I think they are stand up company.

Running them with 37's and 5.13 gears had a bent flange once and they replaced them easily under warranty. No complaints. They didn't want the originals back so now I have spares

Northridge 4x4

I run their rears with 37's & 4.88's, no issues and I hear great things about the warranty!

I'm not 100% sure, but I do not think that they are made in the USA. I believe that very few aftermarket shafts are.

I am using them on my 2 door D44 rear this year with 37"x13.5 tires on a 3.5" backspace. No issues in rocks and trails, but I don't jump or do pre-runner type stuff.

I ordered from Northridge 4x4 and had them shipped to me ready to slip into the axle. It was easy peasy.

I started getting the chirp from ds brake. I could not find a runout spec but PS was around 0.004 and ds was around 0.025 so figured it's out. Funny thing is chirp is not constant.
