    I believe the driver inner axle broke on the front. I was going up rental Hill and on one of the attempts over the top, the front driver tire stopped spinning. Either that or the Detroit blew apart, but I doubt the latter.

    Edit: it's a small but steep hill by slickrock that I bent the skid plate and radiator on last time I was there

    Yeah, that sounds just like something that would happen to me, haha. Was that one of your chromo axles? At least it's on the short side so you don't have to fish the broken end out of the long tube.

    Well, hopefully, once you upgrade that one to chromo, the next weak link will be the driveshaft U-joint, something relatively easy to repair on the trail. :fingerscrossed:

    I'm thinking that once I get my new bumper squared away, I might try to get together with @GuyHuey and see if he wants to take a trip up to Redrock. I need to put that NAPA CV axle to the test and see how it holds up. It'll probably be on a Saturday, but if you're free and you've got the front end back in fighting trim, you'd be welcome too. I don't think either of you guys have been up there as yet.

    I'd probably be in for that, it will be a few weeks before I get that shaft though so the later on... The better

    No problem. We still have to finish up the gussets and then I have to get it painted so I won't be ready anytime soon. :thumbsup:

    @GuyHuey is one of the best spotters I know. He really has a good understanding of the dynamics involved in picking a good line. If you never wheeled with him, you can learn a lot from him about picking lines.
