As Gizmo says..i swapped one in at moab..and it fit like a glove.
It was strong enough on my last trail to break the drive flange in the Superwinch hub.
This is a good thing..rather like a shear pin.
Better the hub drive flange breaks..which is a 10 min fix...than the CV's explode.
Tolerances where spot on..straight swap with OME.
I drive home in 2x4 mode...so dont know about regular road durability...
...but my bet is.. two !!

Are you locked in the front now? If so, that is a sweet deal, enough torque to blow out a Superwinch hub! (which I heard at the ZU meet is no longer honoring the Lifetime warranty, they were bought out or some such). I still have a couple of OEM CV axles, but this is good info to know! May have to check into getting a spare for the Trooper.
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

Jo,
I (as well as a lot of others, I'm sure) really appreciate that you did this! I've been getting worried about a viable replacement for these as I found my boots torn on both sides not long ago and they were pretty dry >_<
I'll be purchasing a set soon!

No problem..glad to help..glad we seem to have a good alternative source.
I swapped the drivers side out cause I had torn two boots the previous day on Golden Spike
Didnt remove "green cup"...( not a Stoop job!!)....simply released boot from cup on new shaft...
....took out old shaft/cv's...and slotted in complete new one.
Only one side of one boot to secure, to green cup.. ( still a pain..and knuckle skin'er !).....
....but quicker in the long run .
I'll be servicing the OEM shaft I took out, re-booting it...
...and carrying that as a spare.
If I have any issues with the Surtrack ..I'll let ya ll know.

I called Dean @ One Stop. He quoted me $125 each, then came down to $110 + $20 shipped.
Then I contacted All Car Auto Parts through Ebay. The quoted me
IZ-8010 $75 shipped
IZ-8011 $90 shipped
So I'm ordering through them. I also called the manufacturer SurTrack directly and they don't sell to individuals. They provided a re-seller in Texas, but they weren't helpful.

Just talked with Dean @ One Stop.
If you mention VX owners club ( This site!)...best he can do is :-
$90 per side , Plus shipping.
I pushed him on price, but his volume doesnt match "All Car Auto parts"...
...my $88 was a one off cause he wanted to see the parts too!
Bummer...cause he was SUPER helpful .... but price rules..he understands.
Please keep him in mind if 'All Car' cant follow through/raise prices.
Cheers

Just ordered mine Thursday will recieve them Wednesday. I will be putting them in this weekend will post how they work out soon. $88.00 each for the complete axles $35.00 for shipping to Texas tho. Not to bad
COOL....
We'll have a few people testing them...excellent.
So far so good with mine...no issues at all.
Though I do run 2 wheel drive mostly because of Aussie Locker...
............in true 4x4 they have been great.
I'll be interested to see how they stand up to constant TOD all wheel drive use.
