longfields would prob be cheaper for a set and be better in the end

yeah, but some of those state "not for highway use"....which translates to me that their machining capabilities sucks.

is the bear?

[Graystroke]

ok, guy from that place eric posted called back and said he had one. $250 and it includes the inner shaft, which in my case I need the pass side. good price?

which shaft do you break more often short or long?

do what? i have never heard of anyone bashing longfield because his product was poorly made.

buy some longfield shafts, hub gears, and mini truck lock-outs. and never worry about the front axle again.

scroll down and look at the FJ80 birfs

fj80= fulltime, which means it spins all the time.

which means his joint won't last

thats a dumb reason to buy lockouts...b/c someone's product can't perform

How does "not for highway use" translate to not going to last? Sounds like an ASSumption.

Have you actually called and asked why they are offroad only?

b/c chromoly is softer and they wear faster. they are designed for part time
so it's not machining, it's just the wrong material for the wrong truck and drivetrain specs

longfield says himself they aren't designed for highway...and they only would last 10k or so...dedicated off-road only
who's the ASS now!?

your right, your much better off paying entirely too much for stock birfs. i dont know why you would want drive flanges on something your going to drive everywhere.

yeah, the design of the stock one sucks...I mean it only lasted 265,000 miles... and it must be impossible to to produce a CV thats meant to spin all the time...good thing there aren't any front wheel drive cars driving around!

Hmmmm....

so first you ASSume their machining capability sucks

next you ASSume they limit their product just because it can't perform

then you actually do some research and find the real reason why they are not suggested for highway use, and you ASSume that I care

You're still an ASS, just an enlightened one.

Let me make it simpler for you....
Because Bobby Longfield said so.

B/C I know you care deep down.
