Nice pics. Was that axle bowing?

I assume you're talking about the closeups of the axle?
The diff broke! A huge crack appeared in it on the driver's side.

That happened to YJMoneyPit on Cliff Hanger on the 2nd day. It took us 6 hours to limp our way out. We used a rachet strap to try to lift up on the axle tube on the driver's side by going up over the frame.... it worked and he was able to limp back to Moab w/o it breaking completely.

[Hickey]

I didn't break nothin at EJS this year

 

[Terrible Paulsy]

Saw the after math of a pealed back 8.8 diff. Nice little 90 weight trail to follow. The strange thing is, this was on a very non-technical part of the trail (dirt road). So either Ford 8.8's are pron to random oil gushes, or it was a very delayed reaction to some obsticle they'd just done.

also:

broken d44 u-joint Those are a dime a dozen though.

 

[UTAH]

Great pics. Thanks for sharing.

Bill

 

[McGhie]

1 u joint

1 taillight

O ya eneyone see that rubicon roll on potatosalad. I saw it hapen but had to leave just after. What was the outcome?

 

[Willywig]

I went the first weekend... (couldn't get off work)
Not much damage

1 Shredded tire
1 rear Bumper off A Range Rover

Ugh! I wasn't able to get gas to the carb when my rig was warm! And chatting w/ other motor geeks since then, I may have found the answer. I have a few rubber hoses that may be cavetating (sp?) when the motor area is hot and the rubber is real flexible. I'm going to replace my 5/16 hardline w/ 3/8 and make sure it's steel all the way thru. I'm also going to check my pickup in the fuel tank and probably put in an electirc fuel pump.

So no real breakage that I can brag about.

But, here is a couple of fun picks!

BTW, Caste - Cyberduke is my screen name here. And I'm the yellow Scrambler.

I saw..
a dude in Mickey's hot tub trying to get out and as his friends were pulling on the strap, his bumper came off. Everyone laughed. Pic to come.

 

[pokeyYJ]

Had fun even though there wasn't as much wheeling as I wanted to get in.

I had the pleasure of wheeling with a great group of guys, always having fun even when you bust a 44 rear housing and get attacked by a drunk Vet. in Fat City Parking lot.

SPRING BREAK!! WOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!
