Droooiiddd 2

 

[dmcguire]

Needed a shady spot to change his underwear?

 

[CJ007]

Blown driveshaft U-joint?

Yes on the ujoint, driveshaft no, but the u joint was an affect, not the cause

Another good guess, but not the answer (even though I am shocked it has seen some rough trails)

Needed a shady spot to change his underwear?

Now we're talking , but not it...

This is probably the most popular trail in AZ. It's north of Phoenix about 30 miles and called Lower Terminator. There are lots in this area the state has designated as trails. They recently put that sign up but not sure on how many trails. This one is 3.5 out of 5. Enough about AZ...

Any other guesses....

Bent driveline.
broken pinion yoke.

Nope and nope. You will not believe what it was....as much human error as rock.

I'm not as shady as I look..it was hot a few weeks ago and sun was on my pasty face, lol. Here are some pics of a real Jeep








I am going to show this to my buddy this weekend to piss him off. His Jeep is in my garage until he puts in a new .......

Anymore???...

 

[JR74CJ5]

E-Brake ??/

 

[Petescj]

Over powered an axle with the skinny pedal?

Stubborn poop that would entail bald head protection from the Az. sun? Been there but used another option. Used to live in Casa Grande

 

[Old Dog]

If it's not a driveshaft, u-joint, axle, or pinion I give up. I can't think of anyother reason to stop where he did.

LOL, I became his ebrake, . The ol' CJ went first no prob :grinjeep: and then tied him off.

That lead to the U Joint, pretty close.

Casa Grande has grown and shrunk in the last few years. It was part of the building boom, but now you get a new home for next to nothing. Pretty crazy!

BTW-I tied him off and he still got hurt, his burned his bald head on the exhaust. Dang!!!! I can't find that pic! It peeled him real good.

OK so here it is, and I'm surprised no one said it was due to his inexperience, per the sign. HAHA.

So, TJ's seem to have linkage issues to the transfer, he was having trouble and got halfway up, he though it skipped or maybe it was in 4 high as it didn't feel right on some other obstacles and wasn't crawling, he has a 4-1 transfer. So, he floored it and it lurched.

He did bust his CV, and pop the end off that holds the goo in the driveshaft too, but it was his Transmission ! Apparently it was low on fluid, not sure the angle had anything to do with, but shortly thereafter it went out..

I am sure he will blame it on a leak, but I think he just doesn't check his fluids . To pick up a rebuild cost him $650.
