Extended CV Axles - Lets talk about them

I have done a deep drive into the Extended CV Axles needed when doing a lift on the 3rd Gen tundra. Here is what I found. What are they? There are two sets of front CV axles that come stock on the 3rd Gen Tundra. The TRD Offroad packages and the TRD Pro Tundra come with a red set that are over all longer and stonger built for offroad. These upgraded Axles handle more weight and flex than the standard OEM Axles. What is the Difference? SpecStandard CVTRD / Extended CV Length~24.5–25.5"~25.5–26.5" Shaft Diameter~26–28 mm~30–32 mm Joint SizeSmallerLarger Plunge Travel~1.5–2.0"~2.5–3.0" When do you actually need them? This is on a case by case bases but most trucks do not need these extended axles. When using the standard size axles you may get a clicking or CV binding noise when at full flex. Full flex happens most often when you are offroad and you may have one wheel completely off the ground and the other side completely stuffed into the fender. At this point is where you will see the limitation of the CV axle. But 95% of the Tundra on the road today will not see the limitation as also the UCA becomes a binding point before the CV axle does. Other Options Now other than the OEM red TRD axles there are others on the market that are also extended that may fit your needs.

Let me start by saying I’ve owned a lot of overland vehicle-mounted awnings in the past. Honestly, probably more than I’d like to admit. The conclusion I came to for a long time was that most of them are basically the same imported awning with a few minor changes. Different branding, slightly different features, but overall pretty similar.

Because of that, I never really looked into the Kammok awning. Mainly because of the price point. I just couldn’t bring myself to pull the trigger on a $1,300 awning.

Well, one happened to be mounted on a trailer I rented over the weekend, and I’ve got to say… this thing is 10 out of 10.

Is it the strongest awning in the world? No. But what it does incredibly well is set up fast. I would have used my previous awnings way more often if they were this quick and easy to deploy.

On top of that, they also have other accessories. I got a chance to try the hammock system, and to my surprise, that was awesome as well. The only downside is that the hammock system weighs a ton, but the setup was easy and my wife was very happy with the comfort level.

I think Kammok is definitely pushing some innovation with high-quality, easy-to-use products. The challenge is getting people to make the switch and spend that kind of money. That’s probably the hardest battle.
