Yesterday while helping a friend move barrels of veggie oil from one location to another I managed to break the outer joint of the passenger side half shaft while turning full left in 4WD. Mind you that this is a less than a month old reman unit from O'Reilly's Master Pro branded. The only reason I had changed out the original half shaft was because while I was air hammering out the original ball joints, I slipped and punctured the boot. Yesterday was the first time I had the truck in 4WD since swapping the half shaft. I still have the original half shaft and I'm really wanting to just replace the punctured boot and put on the original half shaft again. When I replaced the original part, I felt like the remanned unit was shorter than the original since I had to extend the spline end quite a bit in order to secure it to the hub bearing. Does anyone have experience with the remanned units from O'Reilly's? Where would you recommend to find replacement units? By the way way this is a 94 K2500 with 6 lug hubs. Any insight would be helpful!
