No sooner than we made it to Beasley, my center link bent like a pretzel, and I lost steering control.

We used a rock and a bunch of people on my front bumper to try to make it straight(er).

We turned around and went home with my kids in my friends Jeep while I nursed her home.....

I wish I had broke something on my current jeep, but it's been in the garage too long. I broke a cv shaft on my old blazer 15 minutes into a weekend of wheeling after a 4 hour drive to get to the park.  I guess I need to get out and wheel more, the most headache I've had was after I tore the license plate off my bumper and had to spend all night backtracking where we had gone to find it.

In 10 years with a 1981 CJ5, 4 years with a 2000 TJ and almost 5 years with my current 1999 TJ, nothing yet.  But, somehow I did break the D35 carrier in half in my 2000 TJ while driving it on the street {ehm}.  Thankfully it was still under warranty at the time  {hihi}.

So far, knock on wood, I haven't broke anything mechanical, just lots of scratches and dents and dings. My mirror has been taken out by a tree before and my roof rack was knocked off once.
