Hi guys, any help appreciated.
I've got a 94 chevy K2500 8 lug with the 6.5 diesel nv4500 5 speed transmission.
I believe it has a tuffcountry 6 inch lift which was cranked to hell but I recently lowered it. I'll attach a pic of my angles.
Anyway anytime I drive the truck in 4wd I nearly immediately break a cv axle. It's always the inner joint right at the diff. It'll break the axle housing or just rip the joint of its housing. It does have a small spacer maybe 1/2 inch thick on the passenger side and no spacer on the driver side. It seems like it almost always breaks the passenger cv axle. I've been using the autozone duralast lifetime warranty cv axles and I'm on my 3rd one.
I'm running 37 inch military Wrangler MTR's on 16.5 x 8.25 steel wheels, it also broke cv's when i was on bald 37inch procomp all terrains on 20 inch aluminum wheels.
If anyone has any suggestions i would appreciate it.
I'm gonna try to pick up an oem cv today and see how that works.
Thanks
Jesse
