Re: Tom woods story
for the past 3 years I have one of his CV shafts on my YJ and have never had
a problem with it. I think you are an isolated case or more is going on than
you are saying with your rig.

Re: Tom woods story
Hey Dan, I had a Tom Woods om my TJ and it sucked so bad that the splines
twisted. I had 31in tires at that time and I was pissed. The shaft was a
week old when it happened. He would not replace ----. I had a custom one
made at a local shop and it is still strong after all the abuse and 3yrs.

Re: Tom woods story
You obviously have your angles wrong. Tom Wood's driveshafts are the best.
If your angles are out, no driveshaft will survive.
ps. You sound like a whining Jackass.

You're supposed to lube them. They go bad if you don't.

Driveshaft binding is due to improper or excessive angles, or a shaft built to
improper specs provided by the customer. These are what caused your problems,
not an improperly built or defective driveshaft/joints.

And how would you know that? Do you have any evidence or do you just think it
did because you want someone to blame beside yourself?

He didn't lie to you. He was probably sick of your unreasonable whining.
Offroading is hard on equipment. Driveshafts get bent, CV joints and U-joints
get broken. Perhaps you should pick a different sport.
