I busted it on the trail, but I was able to drive almost 20 miles (15 on the highway at 55 mph) and just when I turned off the pavement, onto this dirt road (it's an extention of my driveway), about 1/3 mile from my house the axle gave up completely! I loaded the busted parts into the back, locked the hubs and crawled home on 4Lo.

I could get the damn editor to take my images properly, so I had to do it this way...

For you "Marlin" guys, sorry about the TG sticker. I have a Marlin sticker on the rear widow and front bumper too.

This is where I broke it. The rocks had me in a grip. I couldn't get traction because the rocks were rolling around under my tires. The following weekend a Toy and 2 Jeeps went and they all busted something.
