Boom, Crunch, Crunch, BANG bang...
I thought I lost a Driveshaft just as I was coming to the exit of the Highway...
Let's say that wasn't the only thing., The Pinion exploded inside the Differential, cracked the side wall of the pumpkin and the Stub of the Pinion and the ass end of the driveshaft is somewhere out on 495 north near the Rt 62 Exit...
I managed to drive it with the front wheels to get it off the highway, looked at things, and got it the rest of the way home after putting a limiting strap on the driveshaft to hold it up. I went under it at home to see the damage. Rear Axel it totalled, Driveshaft too..
I'm now desperately looking for a pair of Rubicon takeouts. If anyone has a set or sees a set, please let me know ASAP. I prefer a Rubi set, as I don't want to have to regear for the Stock Dana 30 front (or gear the 30 to the rear for that matter), and would rather just replace both at the same time (and lockers to boot).
send me a PM and I'll email you back ASAP, Note I leave for Spain on the 16th and arrive back on the 26th. so if you ping me at that time I'll be on a different time schedule and may not contact you back right away...
