2025+ Lifted CV Issue (or none-so-far) Rollcall

[durangobiker]

I need a lift but wondering if the updated 2025/2026 CV joints + half-axles are holding up for those of you with a lift? Can you please chime in with your experience and also add if you have constant bed or hitch load and the front/ rear lift you installed?

I scraped the heck out of the underside of my 2025 AWD Hybrid and with my 500lb Hiatus permanently installed pop-up camper on some BLM roads. I do have some sag --even with airbags. I'm still under warranty and been hesitant to lift as a result, but even rear tire wear is an issue due to the sag and resulting camber. A lift will hopefully help even if it is 1" in the front and return to stock in the rear.

If you have a 2024 or previous MY with or without axle replacement, that's really not applicable to this specific question for the newer CV. If you have an stock un-lifted MY 25 or 26 and have had CVs replaced, that is interesting and worth chiming in!

I'm seeing a few 2025 specific threads on the topic, but they're all closed so starting fresh.

Thanks! I love the desert landscapes of Southern Utah. It's incredible scenery, but there's so much here in this country worth seeing first hand. Hence, my little fuel efficient adventure rig to get there... and then drink coffee on the tailgate the next morning!
