I've been wanting to purchase the Teraflex driveshaft for a couple years now, but I kept pushing it off until my joints were bad. Well now my joints are bad and I need a new driveshaft. But I've discovered that the Teraflex driveshaft I wanted has been discontinued. So now I'm pretty PO'd at myself that I never purchased it sooner. So that leaves me searching to find someone who makes a high angle rzeppa driveshaft like Teraflex used to make. At this point I'm not interested in double Cardon. A double cardon only addresses one end of the shaft. With a rzeppa at both ends I don't need to sacrifice caster adjustments for the sake of the driveline. Besides the rzeppa is smoother and a better system. So if any one knows someone who makes rzeppa shafts or is aware of any new old stock Teraflex shafts for the front of a 2013 JKUR please let me know. Thank you.
 
I don't know of anyone currently making an off-the-shelf double rzeppa shafts, but I would imagine that any of the major companies would be willing to build one. I actually like the rzeppa design and wish it was adopted more in bigger builds (the stock rzeppa is ~as strong as a 1350).

Thanks for the input. I found I have a local driveshaft builder in town 30 miles away. I'm going to talk with him about it. I mentioned it to him in a phone conversation. He prefers the double cardan, but I think its more from limited experience with Rzeppas and concerns they are week than anything. Hopefully he can build me something at a competitive price.
