Is this question for me? If so I can't say I've had any other issues although I'd recommend to anyone doing a T-bar crank lift that with all of the suspension work to be done on the front, it is a good time also to perform preventive maintenance service on the CV joints. I was a bit intimidated by them at first but actually it was not hard to disassemble the inner ones and replace the boots with new neoprene ones that are more flexible and refill them with fresh grease. After 15-20 years, it is worth doing to keep the joints in good working order if your axles still seem to be in good shape otherwise.

What size lift did you get, OP? I have the rough country 6 inch lift on mine. It drops the diff down, but the.cv angle still isn't flat by any means.

While we're on the topic, are there any heavy duty, high angle cvs available for our trucks?
