Thanks for all the replies, I probably won't go as extreme as post #12 but would like to do Prichett Canyon and Behind the Rocks. I know anything and everything can break at one time or another. I just found a pretty good price on the Alloy Usa and at the time have never heard of the company. Thanks again!

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say it's because one is made in the good ol USA, and the other isn't.

Looks like first you are missing the fact that the Alloy price is for a set of inners and outters and a pair of 5-760 joints while the superior price is for just one side and it doesn't list a joint or whether that's just the price for the inner alone. The pic indicates (1) inner, (1) outter, and (1) unnamed joint.

It's still not the ideal package.

If you are going to get alloy shafts, you will want a good u-joint like CTM, Jantz, or JE Reel waterproof.

If you break the stock joint, most likely you will break any alloy shaft, or at least deform the ear.

Yea I have read that also..defintly going with JE Reel or Jantz,,I talked to randys and they said they will replace the yukons underwarranty no questions asked..then again Idont want to have to send em in ..

but then ya have casue and effect ..in a turdy thirty if I beef up the axles to alloys then get HD u joints then my weak point is the ring and pinion ..

I know im opening a can of worms here ..
I suprised no one has played the D44 upgrade card..
So then
HP D44 FF with lockouts , chromos , and CTM's right......
screw it
how bout a pair of D60's 39" Iroks and be done with it..

just wandering there..
looks like Ill upgrade my 30 with chromos run 35's and skip the D44 .....
when Im ready will jump to the D60
