A JL front axle shaft is a critical component of the Jeep Wrangler JL's drivetrain, transmitting power from the differential to the wheels. It is typically made of high-strength steel and is designed to withstand the rigors of off-road driving.
Enhance your Jeep Wrangler-D30 Sahara's performance with our top-of-the-line HURRICANE PERFORMANCE FRONT HD CV AXLES KIT. These CV axles feature a high-strength constant velocity design that surpasses OEM standards and is proven to be twice as strong. These heavy-duty CV axles perform just as strongly at straight angles as they do at extreme angles, where U-joints are typically weakest. Additionally, they prevent U-joint binding for a smooth transfer of power to the ground, ensuring worry-free performance even with large tires and high-powered vehicles.
-
Constant Velocity: Unlike U-joints, CV joints maintain a constant velocity throughout their range of motion, which means they don’t lose velocity at certain angles. This results in smoother power delivery and less wear on the drivetrain components.
-
Boot Material: Typically made of rubber or thermoplastic to protect the CV joint from debris and moisture.
-
Greater Range of Motion: CV joints can handle a greater total operational angle compared to U-joints. This is particularly beneficial for off-road vehicles that require high levels of articulation for navigating rough terrain.
-
Strength at Steeper Angles: CV joints are built to provide better strength at steeper angles, which is often encountered in off-road conditions. They have more contact points to distribute the torque load, making them stronger than comparable U-joints.
-
Reduced Wear on Components: The use of CV joints can reduce potential wear on other drivetrain components, such as the transfer case’s viscous coupling unit, due to their ability to maintain constant velocity.
-
Compatibility with Lifted Vehicles: CV axles are well-suited for lifted vehicles. They can accommodate the extreme angles without causing binding, premature wear, or vibrations, which is a common issue with U-joints in lifted applications.
PART INCLUDED:
