Sorry, but Duh, I got these months ago from Napa. They had them in stock.:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

The deal with full circle snap rings is that if a u-joint fails, it is much less likely to destroy the axle shaft ears. But it requires the ears be machined flat to accept the ring. The Warn alloy shafts are not only machined to accept the full cicle snap rings, they are also heat treated for more strength in the U-joint area.

OK RokZuki...you rock !

Now give up the details man, don't make us beg !:flipoff2:

Course it's probably a moot point for me as I decided to tack weld the caps anyway:eek:

BTW - The circular impression in the joint...is that indicative of a forged joint? I ask because my wife's stock TJ has joints that look like that in the driveshafts
