I was just saying add a small triangle gusset to the angle iron attached to the frame. Just a simple rollbar gusset should work.
He was climbing out of a ravine and it cracked off the front output half. So far they are claiming to replace it before seeing it in person. they say we are number 10 that broke a case out of 10,000 that have been built the others cases were broken by rock racers.
the drive shaft is short if anything. My guess is that he is still running 3.54 gears and the t case is 5 to 1 so the tcase is trying to twist itself apart. I have seen the same thing happen to 300's. try this link

You'll probably be just fine with the crossmember mounted the way you have it, but you're wrong that the long arms are just going to push & pull the crossmember in the shear plane you have. It would only be true if your mounts were perfectly in line with the mounting bolts. The control arms will try to twist the crossmember up & down along with pushing it back & forth (your currant shear plane). It's the up / down twisting of the control arms that will bend the flat tab mounts.
I recently bought Beezils rig and have had it out a few times already.
It was a little broken and they are really busy with the kid
So if I understand this right,... Sponge Bob is now driving the Bow Flex mobile?![]()
I believe that's correct. So Matt, were you hittin the sauce last night?I don't know if my Jeep kicks ass or not, I think it's a pile o crap in the way of getting a real car in the garage and I'll be surprised if it ever runs! Jeff
