CVs do not have a U Joint. Its basically a ball and socket with ball bearings inside. Very strong and smoother function with less upkeep. They will also handle more rotational stress at max angles than U joints. I think these are rated at sharper turning angles than a normal 60 can turn.
Longfield CVs are uber cool but are $1850 for a set! and thats $6-700 more than the very best (superiors and ctms) axle/ujoint combo you can buy.
