I'm curious about what shop did it? I had mine done about 2 years ago and haven't opened it up. Hope it's not the same shop!

Absolutely correct. It was a dealership in San Fernando, Ca.
Rydell Jeep.
After this I'll be on the lookout for another shop in the area..

That’s amazing one bolt held up as long as it did.

What the broken piece of the carrier still bolted to the ring gear? If so, it’s a testament to the strength of those bolts.

I think it not breaking earlier is testament to Dons Graceful driving skills... [emoji23]

That's what is so surprising to me. I know people that say it's impossible for that to happen but...:idontknow:
I've got a good relationship with this Service manager.. First thing this morning he went to take pics of the bolts for me.. He called as soon as he saw it and offered to pay for everything.
Still don't know about that.. I'm going to push for the front to be opened up and the bolts pulled and loctited and re torqued
That's the only thing that was holding it

Rst8rox’s first rear axle and the reason for putting the 1tons in that I’m running now.
It happen snow wheeling a few years back, V8,40’s & going just tooooo hard on a hill climb. Link arm bent & pinion angle changed enough that the cv bound up at redline during the 1,2 shift lol!

Carnage at crawl event hosted by my club. Was an expensive day. Lost the ujoint, then the axle shaft and then the ball joints. Was surrounded by great friends to help me out and get it back down to the staging area (using a log as a skid 
) and ready for a tow the following day.
Got replacement ball joints here tomorrow so I can get her back on the road. Contacted Jeremy about a new chromoly axle shaft so hopefully that’ll work out.

Thanks man, me too. I felt pretty bad that it took so long, about 3 hours, taking up their time.
Lol, that log was a God send.
