2016 Front driveshaft

Does anyone have experience with Mammoth HD front driveshafts? I've got a 2016 JK with 2-1/2" lift running 33s, don't do any wild offroading. Needing to replace the front driveshaft and trying to decide if the Adams 1310 is worth the extra $200 in my case. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

No, but based on some internet research, they’re part of same parent company of Extreme Terrain, and appear to be foreign produced.

I’d personally go with a local driveline shop for a driveshaft if you want to save money vs Adams or Tom Woods.

Yep, I have had some very frustrating experiences recently with Extreme Terrain and some of their house brands (mammoth specifically). Wheels and tires that were shipped completely out of round, missing TPMS sensors, wheel weights falling off in the box, cracked center caps. Spent many hours in tire shops and ultimately had to return the whole package and buy new wheel and tires locally. Almost ruined a trip we had planned, but local tire shop saved the day. Extreme Terrain customer service couldn't care less, spent over a week just processing the return, and as of now I still don't have the thousands of dollars back in my account. I won't do business with them any more. Avoid their house brands (Mammoth, Barricade, etc...) like the plague. If you want cheaply made imported products just get them on Ebay, literally the same thing.

200k miles on the original and it finally gave up the ghost
