I purposely have not looked at this thread since Friday. Now I know why. Wow, looks like you guys are havin a blast and testing everyone's but clinch capabilities as well. Randy, glad you made it thru the canyon. That is a serious trail and I was worried about you on that one!! Danny, hope the trans case fixes itself, Kirk, sorry man, new rig and still learning it on a class 5 trail is ballsy! Ya'll have fun!
I've grown tired of this.

Yes, he just put a cage in it before he left. I think the stock middle bar would have held up, but man, right on the top is bad.

Mo carnage...

U joint gave up on the rear DS at the Transfer Case, took out the carden joint, centering ball and the yoke.



Good news, parts are in stock at Moab 4X4.

Moral of this story.. Use solid u joints. This was a Tom Wood DS with his "gold seal" joints. Pretty sure they are from china. All new spicer u joints going in.

When was the last time you checked for slop in the u joint?

I have factory uni bearing going out in my tj. 75k total miles, didn't wheel until 40's, and had 35's around the 60k mark. Wheeling wears on things.
