It’s been awhile since I’ve posted! My last post was regarding 39’s on stock axles well it broke right at the FAD on a trail. Talk about a very stressful experience. The good thing was, I had a great group of people there that helped me get through everything. That’s what makes the wheeling community awesome.

It’s been quite sometime waiting for parts and what not but it’s finally “done”. I love the forums here and I’ve learned a lot from you guys! just wanted to share with everyone ?

How did you break it? Was it a difficult trail?

Holcomb creek, made it through the entire trail. At the very end, I tried to avoid oncoming dirt bikes/ rigs coming opposite direction.

when I avoided them I caught a part of a ravine in the road. It bounced the front right tire. As soon as it hit the dirt it snapped.

User error is why my axle broke and I learned my lesson ? slow down and be cautious.

Dang man that sucks! That would definitely be a debacle getting that out. Good thing you had friends.
