I havent had any issues with mine as yet. I do some nasty stuff to my zook and only thing Ive broke so far is the front (Alloy) diff mounting points and CV's... How hard are you going to go?

Zuks Drive shafts are like any others.. Treat them to rough and they go Pop.. like High revs and Low range mixed with extreme Angle can result in a CV going Bang..

outer bell of the outer cv is the weak point, this is exagerated by turning as the inner balls are closer to the edge
no need to treat em rough Magnat, seen em go bang on stockers and modifieds alike in situations you just wouldnt pick
the alloy housing is also pretty weak, both around where the pinion is and where it bolts to teh crossmember, easy fix is a steel one from a GV
you can get a kit to fit hilux driveshafts in as well, much much stronger but pretty finnicky to fit
