[QUOTE="Danarch, post: 451350, member: 21093"] Very funny, when I was in my late teen’s maybe 20 our family went to Pismo Beach (had a YJ), did some sand wheeling. Got stuck in hole finally went down to 8lbs in the tires, got right out of there, except the back end got air, rear end came down and bam, heard something. The driveshaft busted right out of the rear yoke. We took it off dad disappered. He came back and said “founded a welding shop, they welded on a tab on, it should hold. Put it back on, new u-joint (carried a couple) and drove it for about three months that way. Finally bought a new and threw the other in the tool box. RE - DS (not saying was your issue) we would go on the Rubicon and people would talk about how strong their aftermarket u-joints were. One day my dad looked at me said ”I don’t get that strong u-joint idea, I’d much rather replace a u-joint on the trail then worry about the DS breaking, I’ve always kept that concept in mind.
