1330 vs 2r CV? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Which one ya think has more beef? The 2r on my K5 now is spitting the caps out. Think the molded in plastic is giving up. The 1330 I have has externa snap rings = better?

Go get the ball seat rebuild kit, new u joints and rebuild the damn thing.
Not hard, will take you about an hour.

Uh...the question was, which one is stronger.

you might call Jess at High Angle Driveline and ask him.

we dont have the specs for failure of every u-joint made tacked to the wall for reference just yet.

Aw, c'mon...

I run a business too and so I hate calling people just to ask them a simple question I could prolly research myself.

I think the 2r might actually be a bit stronger once it's rebuild with snaprings. The ujoints are slightly larger.

You really are a grumpy old fart, huh?

I hate to bother people when they're working trying to make a living. If someone happens to see my thread and has experience with the subject, they can chime in. That's what a forum is. A community to share information. It never ceases to amaze me how people will waste their time and others' to post in a thread and harass someone for wasting their time.
