Hey Mike, Thanks for all your help on the long weekend. The total tally of all my troubles was more than likely due to a rear broken axle that quicly turned into 3 broken axles when i threw in the diff lock. So 3 broken axles, broken LF tie rod, a roof, broken rear diff cross member, 2 blown beads and a blown ego sums it up! LOL! have a good one and thanks agian.
