After breaking a front bearing side yoke at the Rubicon trail, I ordered and installed these RCV shafts. They are CV shafts with orange boots. Steering knuckles need to be shaved near bolt holes, otherwise just slide in.
Update/problem: Ten Factory seal keeps popping out

Tummy Tuck
Tired of my stock t-case skid with drop kit...
1.25" JKS body lift to clearance the t-case lift...
Brown Dog Offroad 1" motor mount lift with rubber bushings.
Novak cable shifter replaces the stock t-case linkage... now shifting like butter.
3/8" Undercover Fab 6061-T6 aluminum t-case skid plate, 2" deep. Clearance gain over previous is 4.5".
Currie rear trackbar relocation bracket: raises axle side mount point up about an inch for pinion rotation.
Had to bang the perches to clearance the shocks. Also flipped the shocks for more clearance.
Currie uppers adjustables replace the stock upper control arms... for pinion rotation.
Pinion is parallel or slightly below driveshaft angle.
CV (double cardan) driveshaft from Tom Woods Driveshaft.
