I recently snapped my axle shaft u joints and I decided instead of paying to have them fixed, I would take the opportunity to learn a bit more about my jeep and do the labor myself. I went ahead and ordered from Ten Factory new Dana 30 axle shafts and went through the labor. Now though after they have been installed and I went for a test drive, The inner and outer U joints contact each other when I turn all the way left or right. These shafts are brand new and I'm wondering if it was installer error, or if these shafts are damaged out of the box.

Thank you
 
Sounds like you need to readjust your stops to prevent from turning to far, could be the reason why you snapped the old U joints.
