I tore up one of the cv axels on Jeep recently and am wondering if there are any good upgrade cv axels out there. I have a two-inch body life on my commander and they don't seem to like the angle. Any brand recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks

Im confused what you mean by body lift? Surely that shouldnt change the angle of the cv's? I have a 2.5 inch spacer lift myself and the angle hasnt caused an issue yet. I often disconnect sway bars and climb up mountains around here. The stock CVs are pretty durable on the QD system. Are you sure they werent run without grease? Mine has a tear in the boot and Im sure eventually it will go, if all the grease leaks out.

There are not any upgrades available outside of normal replacement brands. The stock ones are plenty strong for whatever you throw at them, and a 2” lift is not going to accelerate the wear enough to cause them to fail sooner than an acceptable amount.

This place made upgraded CV axel sets a couple of years ago for the Commander/ Grand Cherokee. They don't currently list them but it's possible they could still make a pair for you. They were going for around $2k a pair. https://www.rcvperformance.com
