[QUOTE="mac5005, post: 491745, member: 4650"] Are you seeing a lot of road time without unlocking the front at the hubs or pulling the drive flanges? Rcvs can handle extended road usage better than the Ctm or super joints. I know it sounds silly to make a decision based on road usage, but it makes a difference when each is designed very differently. The good ujoints need frequent greasing after road miles as the grease gets slung out of the joint as it spins at highway speeds. Rcvs don't have that problem. Short trips on the road don't hurt them but long commutes do. If you have lockout hubs or pull the flanges often then sorry this post is of no help. [/QUOTE]
