Finally had time to work on the truck, got one side fixed... The housing on the hub side blew up and damaged my radflo too
These were the Nissan value advantage cvs, not much of a value....
Other side snapped up by the diff... That's a tomorrow project....
Replaced upper ball joints too while I had it apart....

Tony,

I'm sure I too late but I do have my two failed shafts that both broke at the diff spline. They are available for parts if you have to rebuild another. Both shafts are OEM with less than 40K miles.

On another note, my RCV diff side shaft arrived today! Now i just have to press a bearing on and install it. I have seals / snap rings, and the bearing.

Best!
Scott

Trail... Got hung up on some rocks not a very hard section either .. Passenger side blew apart first then driver side. Driver side broke in the joint by diff, both shafts were fine surprisingly.
