    ...too much shit to list.

    Depends on what is broken.
    Short answer...as long as both stub sides of the CV are still in place, yes.

    I went on a state wheeling trip almost 3 hours from home in my taco when it was on 35's and seeing how as I was locked front and rear I broke both my front shafts and both my spares so I drove home on the freeway at 75 towing a trailer with the radio up so I could ignore the noise from the broken outer joints :cool:

    This is absolutely no surprise coming from you. Probably even made a "pit stop" at least once when you and your girl got frisky from the smell of axle grease in the air

    and not every trail is a solid flat piece of slick rock. having a rear will be pretty crucial if you plan on doing the harder trails (except if you're james)
