    Yep, those are the ones. I put a set on mine when I found a twist in the short side spline. Good quality and price.

          Installed the new Alloys for the front today. Pretty straight forward install, we all know how to swap a set of shafts so not much to see here but a few pics.


          out with the old in with the new, a little comparison

          I was lookng for a new axle seals from alloy, i called everywhere and no one had them. Alloy themselves is are backordered till JUNE... and they want close to $100 for a set. I called my mechanic friend who got me these in one day, he sais they're made by OX and it only cost me $40


          loaded with RTV

          here is where i was stumped a bit, shafts would go in and they would stop here. Coulldnt get them in anyfurther and the hub wouldnt sit flush with the knuckle. Brought out the BFH and gave it a baby tap and it slid right on...


          and thats it.. they slid right in.. quick install.

                  Don't sell them dude....they might be invaluable to you one day out on the trail
                  Yukon 4340 Shafts...my guess is that they were defective but still....i wouldn't have been able to continue on with the day if i didn't have my stock spares.

                  Passenger side inner and stub shaft



                  Alloy USA's are a little better shaft than the Yukons from what i hear but it is still a d30 shaft at the end of the day....

                    haha no worries brice, i had a set of spares before i got the alloys, so now i have two sets. Im keeping the ones i just took out and getting rid of the set ive had sitting in the back of jeep.
