NEJ had a trail ride yesterday, 22 Jeeps, we had TJs, YJs, XJs, ZJs, 1 CJ5, and 4 Libertys. There was rocks, mud, hills..ice, you name it, it was there. We did about 4 miles of trails in a little over 8 hours. (I said 12 eailer, but then thought about it..and I was WAY OFF)
Well, what happned was to much gas, and a lot of mud. I broke my rear output shaft (snapped of right at the tcase), and the slip yoke broke.
Since it is my VERY FIRST trail damage, I am rather proud, and thought I would share. Ahh..ok, I did learn from my mistakes. And, what I learned is if ya break something, make it worth while so you can upgrade REAL good.
I'm putting in SYE, and a CV drive shaft. Believe it or not, the stock drive shaft and u joints are all in good condition... :shock: !
Once I get the pictures I am sure everybody will be happy to see them... :wink:
Happy Trails.
