Part 3 of my series. Trying to get the XJ reasonably reliable for 2-3 day trail runs. Driving style is light on skinny, crawl over or go around. Sitting on 33's, ected lockers, 4:56 gears. About 5" total lift
This post focuses on front drive shaft.
Currently running stock shaft.
Questions:
- is the front shaft a common trail failure or damage item?
- is there an upgrade that reduces the chance of damage or failure? (Keep stock for back up)
- is best back up/spare just a JY/OEM shaft?
- anything else to consider regarding the front shaft?
