Just a thread to tell what the worst part that ever broke on your jeep. Or the worst thing that ever happened to it, such as rolling off a cliff...

 

Any pics of the tragedy???

 

Well blowing my transmission on a late night dune run sucked. But this was worst, blew my t case in 2 while doing 75 down I80 : /

 

So far only my rear most u joint went, the needle bearings were dust.

 

Not to long after i got the jeep i took it wheeling for the first time and broke the front axle shaft and u-joint...got stuck in a rut.



Buried the axle.



As it sat waiting to get pulled out...back when i had race slicks(all terrains) Believe it or not in this pic those all terrains where almost brand new.

 

Broke my truss on my d44 at A bid dogs event, on a trail called v-ditch. Had to drive back to camp withmy axle rotatated up, and the bad thing is I have a three link so it was nasty

 

Wow, Notice there are only 4 people on this thread so far... That's a jeep 4 ya! Lol

 

Damn, I gotta ask, how does a transfer case break when in 2wd?!

 

All of my worst experiences were only cosmetic! This wasn't so bad but hell, might as well add to the pics, haha. Hit a deer going 65, and that was at impact too - I didn't see the deer coming until I hit it. Ford built tough? Pssh, that's Jeep!!

 

Uploader would only let me put 2 at a time. Here are two more pics haha.

 

Sorry to triple post - geez! haha - but wanted to show what I added after my second deer accident (no pics, wasn't so bad but put a pretty good crack in the header panel) Hoping this helps me with deer number 3

 

The centering bearing in the front shaft goes out and the two u-joints bind and still have to turn so it rips the t-case apart. That makes the 3rd time Ive seen that happen.

Broke an axle shaft, ripped a ball joint apart, and bent a housing all in one shabang.

 

I don't have pics but these "Brokes" speak for themselves. I broke the passenger side front axle shaft right at the diff. splines (Walker Valley). I've also had the rear driveshaft take a rock dent then twist in two (Evans Creek).

 

My first jeep was a 93 xj. Had it it for 2 weeks and then rolled it into a ditch making a left turn while downpouring rain. Landed on my wheels. Changed a flat tire and drove it home 7 miles like that. Now it just sits in the driveway for parts.

 

I am amazed it didnt pop the rear quarter glass.
