Check the NERR ( New England Rock Racing ) at Cheshire fair grounds on the 17th of July I want that win

I did it at Boulder Bash At Cheshire fair Grounds To much flex in front My ca was straight up+ down LOL My 36 in tire dropped in a hole about 4 feet deep I had the BEST time at that point in my class Then bang the pinion let go I got lifted off the rock pile Just put my roll cage in the day before It held the jeep in the air good test for it LOL

Im thinkin there was a little bouncing going on B . I dont think angle is the cause . If the driveshaft bound up the U-joint would bust. Poor mesh or bouncing, not that your hard on your stuff ! FjR68

No much bouncing just putting the passenger tire into a 4 foot hole the 3rd time I stomped on it to get out My control arm was pointed straight down It went Bang LMAO Oh Well The Ft DS is 3 feet long it took the angle put the stress on the pinion
Check out this my Front axle that has a life time warranty Snapped off in the diff The vid is my normal vid not good Almost made the Buggie Buster 1 st try 4 ft high rocks and 2 foot holes on the other side had something to do with it

Looks like the pinion was set to deep . The end is still there and the middle is gone. My guess. FjR68

On most of it all the teeth are gone After 3 years of what I put it through If it was a Low pinion axle it would of took the ring gear out 1st
Both are close to 30% stronger than stock the next thing is the pinion shaft Stock Hey its only a D 30 and 36in tires Something has to break LOL
