Post subject:  KJ axle woes. Passenger side
I installed JBA's UCA on my 05 CRD and have had two intermediate axle shafts and cv axles.

After the first install I noticed a vibration but put off looking at the problem. After seeing the wear I guessed I has installed something wrong or it was just a worn 10 jeep with 155,000 miles on it.
Well, I changed this axle and cv out and in less than three weeks I am having the same problem.
I have the OME 1.5" lift. From reading on the forum. I understand that my lift is nothing to warrant the cut back axles that are available.

Is the new geometry causing this failure?

Thanks,

Tom

Did you change the bearings and seals in the outer end of the diff? They were shot on mine when the intermediate shaft stripped.

No sir i didn't. Seal was dry. Needle bearing was fine too.

Thanks for the reply.
