Heavy duty CV Axels?

I put on a 3 inch lift (blocks and spacers really)
Haven’t done much else but an alignment since then.
Got some new tires and noticed the CV Axels and boots are SHOT!

Is there a need to upgrade them to a heavy duty or off road ones?
It says online that they have more travel on the axels and are for lifted vehicles.
Any info would help. Thanks

 

Are you sure the axles are shot? Might just need to be rebooted and re-clamped. Are they making noise?--clicking while turning or grinding....

CVJ makes some heavier duty stuff if you really need. Never used them personally, but read lots of good stuff on them. Couple of options here:

Yeah one of them does a loud click when turning hard. mid I’m
Doing one I’ll do them both.

 

Unless RCV starts offering us something, OEM are best. CVJ sells re-manufactured OEM axles with high angle boots, but they come at a premium.

Toyota sells re-manufactured CV axles in the $80-$100 range plus a $75 core charge. Core charge is refundable if you turn in your broken OEM. I bought one recently to keep as a spare, and it's identical to my originals. Part number is 43430-0C010-84.

 

Thanks for posting this link.

 

I went with CVJ but had I know about the remanufactured Toyota axle for less, I would have gone that route. That's a good deal.

 

I’ve got the cvj’s on my tundra and sequoia both. No complaints, and would recommend in a heartbeat. They’ve got some top notch cx service to boot.
