Carbon Front Dana 30 27 Spline One Piece Conversion Kit, Wrangler YJ, Cherokee XJ (Carbon Offroad, part no. C0003)
The front shaft and its joint take the most punishment with the wheels turned under load. Carbon Offroad (MetalCloak's axle brand) front shafts are 4340 chromoly steel, dual heat treated, with large Spicer 5-760X series U-joints.
MetalCloak states they are over 50% stronger than stock. The kit includes both the left and right shafts.
