Just snapped the inner shaft of my two piece long side axle this weekend while wheeling. Mine was vaccum operated and I'd switched it to a cable. It worked good for about 3 years but, now it's time to upgrade. I recommend getting a solid long side axle out of a 97 or newer XJ front D30. This will net you a solid axle shaft in place of the two piece POS you and I both have. It will also net you bigger U-joints at the knuckles. I believe the shafts are a little bigger on the newer D30 as well. I will need to mic a set to know for sure....or ask somebody in the know.
