holy smokes Kurt... tha's crazy! I thought my broke leaf pack was cool, you gotta go an shew me up! :devil: good to hear yer ok, as for the 'upgrades' ... I will be keeping an eye for yer next 'build' thread!

The moral of the story is on a YJ or a TJ do not run it without the outer stub shafts in place, people have gotten killed doing that, the bearing will come apart, not always but why take the risk its not that hard to knock the u joint out of the shaft that or collect 2 big bolts and nuts and a thck washer slightly larger than the hub piece thats pressed in the unit bearing so 6you can sandwich it together

rgr that. I read on rof forum about a guy whose wheel came off at 60 and killed him.





Anyways am glad your alright rat. There is aguy here in simi selling a front axle. I think it is a currie.

damn, Rat! that is a rough day put hubs on your list so next time you break a ring gear, you can unlock the hubs
glad to hear you kept the thing under control.

WOw Kurt, I dodn't see this post until jsut now as I have been traveling a bit. Real glad things turned out as they did. You can always fix a Jeep, but Rats' can be difficult to repair. Besides, this just means that it is time.............to UPGRADE! A Jeeper's favorite word.

I have a pair of knuckles of a D30 you can have

Awsome. Thanks for the offer. I'll be out your way later this week. PM me if we can meet up somewhere. If your so inclined I'll buy the :beer:

I saw lot of hp30 at the pick apart by mine and arts house in ontario. I am just waiting for 1/2 price day. lol If you have to change the gears anyway might as well put one in if they are cheeap enough. I wonder if the gears would of failed on a high pinion set up. With your alloy axles and a hp d30 it probably be as good as a d44. I think the carriers iterchanged also.

Kurt,

Glad to hear that you are OK! I just posted on the AAT and now realize you won't be driving on Saturday. Keep us posted if you need anything.
