Bill, you were right

That sound will forever send shivers up my spine.. and cause my neck/arms to feel a burning sensation...

My Sony Digital Mavica's 3.5" floppy drive up and quit and Sony doesn't seem to want to sell a replacement drive to me so no photos. :-(

I have a couple on some film I need to get developed.

If you only do mild off-roading and not getting heavy in the rocks; if you don't put on really big tires, >32"; if don't put in a locker... then you don't need to worry very much.

But if your jeep didn't come with a D44 axle, then don't worry about breakage anyway, because when it breaks you can just take that opportunity to put in a Ford 8.8 (with disk brakes!) or a D44. ;)

Like all opinions, others may differ with this one.

Using 5th gear had nothing to do with the broken axle, it's the trans that is the weak link at that point. The axle is getting a break of the other kind then.
