Surely a design flaw of this nature, with the risk and challenges that come with it, will need a fix from Ineos, no ?

I think it does. Although I accept I am biased as mine has failed on a completely standard unmodified vehicle. In my case the failure caused secondary damage that would not have been repairable in the field, which is a genuine concern.It would be reassuring if Ineos Automotive could address this matter one way or another.

I was under the impression that the main issue is the angle at the transfer case, not the front axle.

They are linked to each other. So correcting the axle fixes the t-case as the T-case can't move.

They replaced mine under warranty with 35” tall tires. 255/85r17

Tires don’t change the diff/driveshaft angle, just give the lift. I’m at 20k miles with no lift and lots of serious off-road, same joint w/o problems. But I do check it regularly and carry a spare rezepa in case I find it torn sometime.

I certainly hope Ineos is taking this serious and planning a recall. Going to install the Agile shaft Monday, will report how it feels.

I might have to go that route just to have peace of mind. For now some spare CVs in the trunk will have to do it.

Looking forward to your feedback on it for sure.
