Rear axle shaft

[Ridin'GMC]

I've been battling rear hub seal leaking on the driver's side. Got annoyed with it and ripped out my axle shaft at work and put it on lathe. Found out my driver's side axle shaft is bent after trying to get to the root of the vibration at highway speed. My question is, should I stick with stock axle or Yukon? I don't drag race the truck but I do play and tow heavy occasionally.

Look at price you may find that you can upgrade to Yukons for less than a new stock. I you go stock I would just go wrecking yard hunting.

Are they really any stronger than the stock application in the 30 spline? I see that they have one rated for my tire size, though I've never heard of anyone breaking one just from playing around besides pulling competitions.
