What about the Dana 30 axel Northridge took off of Wayoflife's Nemo when the Daynatrac axel was put on. Check and see if that is still around. You might be able to pick that up cheep. Although the insurance route sounds better.

Welding a plate over the hole would be a last resort. Hopefully you have the insurance to cover it...most insurance companies have the "uninsured policies" so when someone runs you off the road and leaves you are still covered. Good luck.

Could you pin this on the car that slid?
Personally, I may have let the car hit me if it was coming into my lane. The Jeep would come out on top in a fight with a car, and the insurance increase wouldn't be on me.

It seams this issue is rearing its head more and more..... I am so glad I installed the Teraflex axle sleeves and gussets on our JK.

Insurance should cover this and as some have already said with your new baby I wouldn't recommend anything short of the best possible repair. You never realize how fast 60 mph is until something goes wrong at that speed with a baby in the car 
Good luck!
Good luck!

What I don't understand is from the picture what exactly caused the break? Was the sidewalk like a foot high or something? It seems like a freaky thing to have happen esp having the oil filter get damaged at the same time. That is crazy bad luck man I am sorry to hear about this.

dana 60 is realy not needed
unless your serious off roader in this case I doubt it , just due to he fact he drives a baby in this vehicle
id put a stock one back in and use the rest of the cash on things for the baby probably
