    Hey everyone.

    I’ll spare you the details, just researching aftermarket CV axles for my 2014 tundra (3in lift)

    Anyone used the Trakmotive HDX cv axles? Or the cardone heavy duty ones?

    I have a diff drop kit so I don’t think I need extended travel.
    Anyone running aftermarket cv axles (rock auto sourced) that are holding up?

    Is anything wrong with your OEM axles? If there is your best bet is to rebuild them or have them rebuilt. I would steer clear of cheaper aftermarket CV axles, you’ll most likely have more problems with those than OEM. Unless you want to shell out the cash for RCV.

    RCV is the only real option I have ever heard of anyone running.
