CV joints. Why they fail after T-bar crank.
Here's a great video I found for a company that makes CV joints. The demonstrations he does teaches alot about U-joints and CV-joints.
Great demos on how running at excessive angles leads to failures.
I'd like to figure out how to run some of the ones he's selling on my Jeep.

I would imagine.
Maybe on a custom buggy with a full belly pan they might work. They don't look like they would stand up to being packed with mud, or being bashed on rocks as regular U-joints do(somewhat).
They are interesting though. I learned a lot from the video.

Without being completely sealed in some type of boot, you wouldn't think they would do very well.
Unless the bearing part of them is sealed somehow.
