Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
That's why we would score the axle shaft at the flange end with a pipe cutter so it would break at that end and not have fish it out of the pumpkin...Opps

You have never had to replace a diff on a 6x6 because the end destroyed the diff...70 at 70 sounds like "turn the radio up the noise will go away"

Nice carnage!
I went with a buddy in the fall to Uwharrie and we did that exact same thing to the 31 spline shaft in his F150. We lucked out and found a pair of shafts in a junk yard and had it back together by lunch and wheeling. There are pictures in the trip report forum here from the trip. It even tore the spanner nut out of his third member.
No I haven't because I personally have no need for such a rig. I will just put a 31 spline chromoly upgrade in and hopefully never worry again. Axles are just to small for what I do

Well the good news is Yukon called me back and they are shipping me another set of axle to get me out onto this trip and planning for a year. They are doing this as a no-cost replacement and they said to just throw broke ones away.
Go once I get home if anybody is interested in a 58 inch wide 9 inch with 4:88 gears Yukon shafts and a Detroit Locker I will have one for sale.
Because I cut the 8.8 out of apart Explorer I had and I'm going to use the 9-inch sale money to gear and lock it
