Re: Broken 2007 Jeep JK Rubicon
I just saw it over on http://project-jk.com/ it was on there Anza Borrego Coyote Canyon Newbie Run. In all my years of wheeling I've seen axle tubes bend but not break like that. I've owned two Rubicons beat them & never any major karnage. Feel sorry for the owner, must suck big time.

Re: Broken 2007 Jeep JK Rubicon
Rick did that to his D60 at WE Rock, Goldendale last year. Raw deal, but the JK 44's are really 44 centers with D30 outers. Not the strongest.
