Is there a way to strenghten a STOCK CV joint on these front axles? Gorilla axle is an option but I dont see spending $360 bucks a corner just yet.

I went to the junk yard and found some car cv's cut and welded and made them work

This is on a Yamaha Rhino.. Bike has 27" ITP's on it. I use my quads for mudding purposes.

you may want to go to a driveline shop and see if they can build you a set of stronger axel shafts with better cv's, just remember when you get stronger cv's the weak link will move somewhere else in the drive train
