Thoughts on what bound up

Ahh dang
Forgot low gear.. that another 2.5 to 1 or so?

 

The OP shows 2017 SR. I was assuming 2.7l?

 

I think OP needs titanium

 

I don't have any idea what the reduction would be

 

I guess if you are out on the farm?

 

BULLSHIT!!!!

G.

 

impressed a minivan engine can do that

 

This goes right along with the guys wife that blew the rear end out backing out of an icy parking spot.

 

This guy was just hoping we could give him some excuse and warranty it

 

Judging by the rust and paint chipping on the ends of the tube, it was under extreme torque for some time and finally gave way. The tube would be softer than the welds.

 

i'm guessing got dinged somewhere and then front wheels were stuck etc, throttle and twist.

Without a dent in that prop shaft I cant see one breaking. The CV or U joint would likely go before that.

 

Was hopping in 4wd, hit shaft, tires bit and shaft took a shit. How's transfer case after that.

 

Yep that's called "pretzeling" a driveshaft !!!! , that common when your wheels grab traction after spinning freely

That happens regularly on my Camaro when coming of the Transbrake !!!!!!!

 

Have been having problems switching into 4H like it didn’t want to engage at first. I noticed that a few months back when I went to hatteras. It’s the 3.5L, and when I say nothing crazy mean I wasn’t hard core wheeling going through trails. It was sitting on top of the mud and never sunk down deep. It had been raining for almost a week straight down in North Carolina. No I wasn’t looking for excuses, I just looking to see what y’all think

 

The truck after getting it back home, had not cleaned anything off of it

 

Dented for sure then wheel was stuck and twist.

One of the guys I wheel with broke his rear shaft. He ended up having it resleeved. Was cheaper than buying new.

 

I’m gonna see how much it’s gonna cost to have the local driveshaft shop to either like you said resleeve it or just build a heavier duty one
