i was running stock toyota axles for a couple years and i got sick of breaking them. so i got the eliminator.  the eliminator from yukon costs about 550.  thats with stock u joints. upgrade to the "superjoints" (they're like CTM joints. they dont have needle bearings) and those are an extra 200 just for the joints. but its worth it because then everything has a lifetime warranty. if you dont upgrade the joints yukon will only warranty the shafts. the ears of the shaft are what usually break so you're kinda screwed for warranty if you dont upgrade.  you can get the kits through my dads business chimneycanyon4x4.com if you're interested.

I got a Longfield 30-spline super set for $600 that also has a lifetime warranty.  Bobby will even cover his stuff that was purchased used.  I was just curious how the eliminator kits compared?  Do you know what strength the eliminator is good for?  The longfields break around 9,000 ft-lb which is about 500 ft-lb more than a 35-spline D60.
