:) I've found the older Rangie CV's the most durable, less brittle than new ones. The Haultech modification is the best reinforcement. Regarding the diffs, we should have a kit shortly using Toyota centres in the Rangie housing and 24 spline side gears in the ARB Airlockers for coupling to the durable Maxidrive axles. We suggest using 3.9, 4.1 or 4.3 Toyota diff ratios, depending on tyre size. We will use the reinforced Rangie CV's, even stock stndard they have got us through most events including Malaysia, OBC, NZ Dennys and Ateco. Broke one in the Tuff Truck but who didn't. Breakages normally occur when hitting something on full lock as the CV is in its weakest position, avoid that and they will last a long time. The Hautech modification fixes this weakness and you could also reduce your turning circle with the steering stops, this is a bit of extra insurance. Yours in 4Wheeling, Mike Smith

Mike, why not use the Jack McNamara 30 spline axles, so you don't have to change the side gears? You can still run Rangie CV's
