savage, I ended up winching out as soon as I created clearance for the tire the stream would back fill the space. The worst was I busted off a valve stem resulting ina tire change on the other side. The photo was pre 37's. I entered in to the soft stream bed early and didn't wait for the blazer I was following to clear the stream so I had to stop instead of spool up resulting the moving stream to move the small rocks and bury the truck.

 

The total cost I am in to it is 1400.00 this is with no labor.900.00 for axle housing, 400.00 seals, ball joints, and axle hardware, 100.00 for the oil and spacers to recenter the shocks. (complete the install of the shocks as I didn't have enough spacers at the time of install).

 

Could have been a lot worse. If you plan on jumping it in the future, put some bracing on that axle

 

Damn Aaron. That was a nice jump. I miss my truck.

 

I don't ever plan on jumping again stings the old pocket book to much.

 

Sorry to hear about the cost, but atleast IF you need it, you can still drive home

 

So you are telling me you couldn't convince old parts/service that you were just driving down the road and "something" must of happened and now your ****s all bent?? hahahaha....

come on parts/service, can't you just turn a blind eye for one of our dodgeforum members?? hahaha j/k.

 

You need a axle gusset.

 

Man, you would not believe how many times I hear "I was just driving down the road and it just fell right off."

 

hehe I hear ya there Dave, some of the stories are priceless.
