took it wheeling at gretchens early this summer and broke the output shaft off the tcase and broke a stub at the same time.
put a new case in it installed a new set of spicer joints, and redid the front of my cage so it didnt rub anymore. Then towed it to all wheels offroad in lewiston maine and sheared it off again in about 20min.
so its been sitting in my yard since, i moved it into the garage today, should be picking up another new case this week as well as ordering a set of 5.38s for the axles. Im hoping that takes some stress of the output shaft.
now i just need time and motivation to pull the case out again.
