Just ran across these and figured I would share since the stock ball joints are a huge weak point

I saw those a few week's ago when I was checking out their UTV axle/cv parts. Being that they are 300M and from RCV I would bet its a very nice ball joint. Not cheap, but very nice.

Does anyone have any experiance or knowledge of their axle/cv's? They have zero info on their site, but it clearly looks as if they are using a telescoping axle vs a plunging CV. RCV makes some nice 930 & 934 CV's.

I have no experience with their utv stuff but I did hear about somebody that ran rcv prototype axles/cv's at the hammers I believe. They were the telescoping shaft style and had zero issues

RCV makes some of the best axles on the planet and also is the actual manufacturer of Gorillas CVs. Nothing comes out of that build half assed. Here's a pictures of the axle i snapped a picture of at the expo

Those axles look badass but my only worry would be how well the seals hold up for the telescoping shaft...or how often they would need serviced.

Im definitely planning to upgrade to the 300m ball joints when I need some again .. rcv builds badass stuff and has to be tons better than the potmetal junk that mist the ball joints are made of

I spoke with them about the seals and my concern with them. He said they originally designed these shafts for the monster mud machines that spend their life in mud and water. He assured me that the seals are not an area of concern.

Just looked at their site. And RCV made Bobby Long - (every Toyota crawler owner knows that name) axles. They are known for top notch stuff. Feeling real good about my Gorilla Mav rear CVs now.
