    Hi everyone! I have just upgraded from a 1992 SR5 pickup to a 2008 TRD sport. My truck is a rebuild so there have been issues. The whole front end is almost new! I’ve noticed my CV boots are leaking grease since putting in a 4” BDS lift so I wanna do a replacement of both left and right. I’ve heard moose is a heavy duty CV axle but I’ve only be able to find them for atvs. Does anyone have suggestions on what make is durable and where I can order them in Canada.

    Cheers!C84B7221-CB90-4483-90EA-28B85AF56A8A.jpg

    4” lift? While you replace axle(s) look into a ECGS needle bearing mod.

    Hopefully that 4" lift is a drop bracket lift, otherwise you're going to be going through CV axles/boots no matter what kind you put in

    usually a 3" lift is as high as you want to go with IFS 4x4 so the axles aren't too steep. Unless its a drop bracket lift which keeps the front drivetrain in the stock location.

    Yes it’s a drop bracket lift. I could have mentioned that before.
