Based on my previous online shopping experiences, whatever I wait for to be on sale on black Friday or any other holiday sale is not on sale at that time. Only after that weekend and I get a mere average discount on the item does it go on a real sale.

Get Reel driveshafts, BTW. Even though the Adams are cheaper, the JE Reel shafts come with new yokes for both ends. While that's more work, it positions the U-joints further out and reducing driveshaft angle. I'll be installing mine this weekend.
I agree which is why I was hesitant to wait. So you would recommend the JE ones over the Adams? You’re talking about this one right? https://www.northridge4x4.com/part/...-j-e-reel-1310-heavy-duty-rear-a-t-driveshaft

Well, since I'm OK with replacing both yokes on both shafts, I think the JE's are better to give a better angle. Workmanship, they're probably all pretty close to the same - I couldn't say, actually.

I went with the 1350s front and rear. I actually ordered them from JE Reel directly and picked them up.

Oh, I see, you’ve achieved what we, in the biz, call “baller status”..
When you don't use something for years and then one day count on it to possibly save your life, I don't usually skimp. You don't see rigs with 30 and 40 year old winches that still work unless they're Warn.

LOL. You don't wheel alone much do you?
Not the brightest thinking if you go that hard alone.

Should never go alone...that's very poor judgement. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
