The superflex unis will vibrate on a street truck.
I'm not sure what everybody else is running, I've got Tom Woods on both of my trucks and they're running his 1310 unis all round which are a bit bigger than Rover. That includes DC joints so it'll be interesting to see how they go, but so far so good.

If you want to step them up to 1330's or whatever Tom will do that also, but the bigger the uni the bigger the vibration.

I bought complete shafts from him and he was also kind enough to send me a spare yolk to keep for remote touring. I'm pretty sure he will send the uni's by themselves or whatever bits you want. I wanted larger uni joints in the shaft so needed the whole shaft rather than just replacing the uni.

Nottie I don't believe the 1310's can be fitted to a standard shaft, the yolk ears are not big enough. The prices for the shafts are on Toms website in USD. I've just had a troll through my receipts and the billing receipts haven't got freight marked on them. but IIRC it was about $1200-1300 AUD for 2x 1310 DC shafts on my door.
