Some of them do have 1350 CV's and slip yoke u joints. I didn't though. I had a rebuilt drive shaft from another project already. It just lacked 6". I just made the decision to upgrade that yoke area because I couldn't leave that little puny 1310 in there. These bfg at's aren't all that great in mud. It's weird, I remember them doing better than what these seem to do. Maybe it has more to do with 5500lbs behind you not rolling. I guess 2 wheels with no weight on them, and in mud is the real problem. Haha
