A little advice here! Please and thanks

So my cv axles go bad like it's their job, and as some of you may know I had just had my tires slashed. I got new tires and I just got them mounted and am about to have them aligned and balanced. Should I get my cvs changed out before the alignment? Or can I do it after? I don't think changing the cv after will affect anything but I'm not sure so I'm reaching out here!

Also, are there any stronger cvs available for our rigs? I know total chaos makes one, but it's for extended travel kit! I can't find a stronger bulkier one.

CV swap won't affect the alignment.

Thats what I thought, thanks for the reassurance

Anyone got any advice or recommendation for a stronger cv?

Lotus cv or rcv

Exactly - CVJ or RCV. Do you wheel hard enough that you're always breaking CVs so need stronger ones or do they just "go bad"? These stronger CVs are a definitely a lot of coin.

I don't wheel hard where I should need them but my cvs have been going about every 5-6 months. I have a differential drop in too so the angle isn't too crazy on them. The RCV and CVJs are a lot more than I wanted to spend, and I definitely don't need something that strong. Those things are like cockroaches to a nuclear bomb, invincible. I was trying to find something in between those and stock.
