Rear End Feels Weird

The way the rear wheels would not roll backwards leads me to think the issue started with the drive train and that binding, along with the FJ drivers recovery caused the catastrophe.

 

I read it as it was broken before they started winching. Wish we had more facts!

I think the fire crackers were the rear tires rubbing.

Someone inexperienced may sum that up to a rough road rather than a part on it's way out, or already broken.

 

The rear wheels appear to be rolling fine... until they got bound up on the body of the truck. I think at that point you hear the wheels fighting with the fender and the driveline snapping. I'm not an expert though, but that was my interpretation.

 

Yeah I just went back and rewatched it.. The were rolling, but I would not call it fine. Seems like evrytime they would rotate you would hear that binding noise.

And towards the end right before the break, they were not rolling at all.

 

and @jberry813 delivers.

 

I suspect that the wheel on the driver side made contact with the fender before the passenger side. Hence the noise before we see contact.

 

The best part of the whole video is where they say the steering is good and the fucking axle has already been ripped off

 

anyone have facebook link?

 

Watching the video.....

Is this normal working condition of a 3rd gen?

 

More money than skills right there.

 

What up guys,
I wanted to see how fast I could become famous on social media. Lol. I know everyone is saying they’re saying that. Before are you guys jump to conclusion some of your right and some of you are way off. Going up a steep incline with rocks and dirt I guess I slipped off a rock braking the Ubolt of the passenger rear which turned my axle breaking my dry shaft and shock.

That was hard to watch.

The expression "with friends like that, who needs enemies?" comes to mind.

@SilverSky - enjoy the family, that's all that matters in the grand scheme of things.
