rick break the axle or lose a c-clip?

lol at the slider

we left the Lodge a little late....Rick had a buddy with him, so he thought he would show off before we got there....went to the parking area past the Pump House and wanted to do "donuts".....37's + V-8 + 27 spline 8.8 + heavy foot = broke axle

and yeah....was surprised to go back outside to find Dustins slider on the ground.....

Here's my Sunday pics. I was in the back fighting chewed up trails all day with a transfer case that wasn't happy!

RangerSVT's broken axle remnants after doing doughnuts.

Sam, a Hell of a guy!

There's a few pics of The Ole Brown Turd with a tire or 2 off the ground, but it goes pretty good for a Jeep and open front and rear on 31"s.

And here's my Saturday stuff. yeah I know, got em backwards. At least I got em up here.
Well the lockers did ok except my front one kept unlocking all day way more than it should. Guess I wore it after 3 trips to Turkey Bay.
I exploded a right side front axle u joint. Thanks to Slo-Vo's mobile parts stock I got rolling again!
Had problems with the driver side spindle nut working loose. Bad spot on the spindle so got a little modification in there to last till next week. Stage 8 needs to make their locking kit for the DANA35!!! It would eliminate a very crappy locking design!
When we replaced the axle shaft we didn't even think to check if the end of the axle had the c-clip on it, so the axle backed out of the spindle and was clunking, take it back apart and put one on it.
Sooo, I'll see what happens tomorrow!
Got a pic or 2! I kind of stayed in seclusion today being frustrated with mechanical difficulty. Try to get some more tomorrow!

Great time all day!

It's real early and the guy is half asleep and keeps mumbling
"Got to make the doughuts!"
Doughnuts, get ya everytime.
