is the cap the same as far as thickness? thats what i usually see break with the 760's is just the caps, that is when running full circle clips. if you havent put them in and have a reg. x760 joint around can ya snap a pic of the caps side by side?
i just got done re reading the description, hopefully since they treated the caps they will stay together, the joints are plenty strong, if you can keep the caps in, if you have chromos's then full circles help but the cap will break and still spit the damn cap and if you dont run full circles, well you know what happens then :explode: im just looking for something for my riding buddies (Im tired of replacing freaking ujoints in 25* weather here reciently) and also and alternative for when i have to rebuild my ctm's if i just dont buy new ones.

I'm not mike but I will answer that for you.oztaco said:
Best shaft: Superior
Best shaft for the Money: Yukon
If you need the strongest shit hands down you want superiors and ctm's. But for the price and strengh running long ujoints and yukon shafts is a hell of a deal. That whole set up will cost less than the price of just the superior shafts by over $100. CTM's and superiors will run you about $1000. Longs and Yukons are under $500.
So you could have 2 sets of the long yukon combo for the price of ctm's and superiors. How much differnce in strength, I dunno?
i know for my app. superior chromo's not the evo series were something like 415 per side, so 830 + 380 for the CTM's. my buddie runs the yukons with regular 760x joints on 38.5x16x15's and had gave it hell for the past year, he has broke quite a few joints they never even scared the shafts. i went with mosers just becuase i could get them custom made and to me the next day.(day before a huge ride) i think total for mine was around 1050 bucks for front shafts and ctmsPappaF2 said:

ya superiors are very pricey. I had heard of some people getting both inners and outers before for about $615 or so but it seems most of the time it's more expensive than that. It's nice that Mosers new shaft is burly as their last ones were not. Are you pretty happy with yours?
Good to hear about the yukons too, a nice cheap alternative.

I wheel lots of hard trails, but I'm not hard on my truck if that makes any sense. I got a lot of trail miles out of my stock junkyard shafts before they exploded. I figure for the price and what I do with my truck, the Yukons should be fine.

yeah they have about 10 hard runs on them with the 39.5's, 5500 rpms in 3rd gear trying to get traction on the wet muddy rocks and no problem yet, just grabs and throws my truck into tree's 
, i pulled them when i fixed my detroit and all the splines still look perfect. but its the same with my buddies yukons after a year with multiple u-joint failures his ears still look brand new and feel brand new when putting new joints in as far as tightness.
