how often have you wheeled your jeep? what type of terrain do you usually stick to?
have you had the axle looked at closely be a tech to see if there was a defect in the metal?
damn thats crazy, makes me wonder about my 30...

Well the weight is only transferred from the tires to the mounts and from the picture it appears to be broken between the pumpkin and mount, not the knuckle and mount

I wheel at least once a month. Anything from mud to rocks. I am very conservative with the skinny pedal seeing as I always have my kids with me.
The housing broke like a pretzel rod. As far as i am concerned it is junk Chinese steel but I am not going to try the dealer because of my mods.
