Any update on the rzeppa after some use?

 

I have a pair of these waiting to go on. I also have an brand new OEM joint with boot that is in perfect shape if anyone wants it for $20.

 

My problem with the stock front, was it not only tore boot but was hitting auto trans! So, replaced f/r with after market dc's.

 

After about 10,000 miles on my rzeppa joint drive shaft, I've had no issues. I'm very happy with it and would definitely recommend it to all.

 

Interesting product, but when you can get a new shaft for 4-500 i don't see how paying 150 for this makes sense, especially since new shafts aren't as wide, alleviating contact with the oil pan, and the factory shafts themselves are pretty weak and twisting/denting them isn't that uncommon

 

Because I've replaced the u joint in my rear Doyle cardan approximately 25 times the past year. Twice last night within 20 minutes.

 

thats definitely not normal though

 

This replacement piece makes perfect sense for the weekend warrior. I drive mine 36k miles a year- all highway- and stock driveshafts are easy to come by. Apply this $150 fix and I'm set. My first set of shafts lasted 5 years, if I can get the same life with zero maintenance out of $150.....It would be a foolish move to pass that up. No vibes or angles to worry about and if I do twist a shaft up then it's an easy replacement.


I think what you meant to say is that it doesn't make sense for folks who have the need for the aftermarket provisions- like smaller diameter and trail replaceable pieces. I do not have that need.
