Exclamation RCP's CVD's for the TLT axles...........New and Improved!!

I got the call from jason today that the test sets of CVD's had arrived. I met up with him this afternoon and we got right to the install. I have to say I am extremely impressed so far. The fit and finsh is amazing, and the CVD's are smooth as butter. The amount of steering gained is just about double of the stock dogbone and modified outer cup. Prepare to grind your knuckles.

A huge thanks to RCP for making this happen!!

On to the pics. The batteries in my camera were just about dead, so I only got a few for now. We are going to start running them through the ringer tomorrow afternoon. Watch for pics and video to follow.

They come with standard aluminum hexes and a hex that widenes overall width by about 1/2".

Here's a pic with both hexes.

That's insane!

Add a set of the CVD's w/ a hardened ping and pinion to the aluminum axle C's and knuckles and you have a bullet proof set of TLT axles!

Not that I know of, there were only a couple sets. I've got mine in the front, and can't wait to get a set for the rear axle.

Are they going to make the rears with lock outs in them? Like the Clod thundertech Straigh axles.

I'm not sure. Even if they are the same front and rear, the zero backlash alone is worth it.
