Sur Track CV axle replacement.

[whitebreadx]

Hi all, i have my hd indy BJ's in along with the BJ spacers. I am also going to be replacing my CV axles. i was wondering if Sur Track was the CV axle to go with for a lifted VX.
I saw this whole tread, includes couple of different web sites and part #

what do your guys think?
or does anybody have them, could tell me how they have held up.

As per that thread, several including myself have used them..
...either in their entirety, or just outer ( 1/2 shaft) portions.

Mine are working just dandy, albeit on low mileage...but with a MAJOR lift.
Several others who do more miles than I , have not reported any issues.

Those using them include many others with lifts.
The Sur Track has OEM tolerances on all important features
and uses a true ball race CV rather than a tri-pod configuration.

The Tri-pod configuration has been known to cause issues with lifted VX's....
...binding up due to the increased lift angles....so avoid those.

In short...GO FOR IT... IMO :thumbup:

I use them, but recommend the diff drop brackets made by Mr. Darlington to prevent wearing them out too fast with the lift. I have had them on my VX for a little over a year and have had no issues.

Where can I buy the diff drops from?

I hope these last longer than the EMPIs, I just snapped two EMPI half shafts within the last month. I'm going OEM only from now on.

Member Joe Darlington can build you some diff drop brackets.
