Driving home from a run with the jeep on the trailer and have a question.
Was on a muddy trail and the front end was spinning then made a loud pop. Tires will still spin but front end pops, clunks and makes all kinds of noise. Tires occasionally lock up but if you give it some gas it will pop and continue to spin. Specs on the front end are 4.56's tru-trac in a d30 with 32's. Sounds like the tru trac exploded on me, but my front driveshaft could be giving me the same symptoms right? I'm wondering about the slip yoke busting in it because the grease zerk fitting ring-whatever that collar is called, is able to freely spin if I twist it which I know shouldn't happen. Any ideas on this while I'm driving? Does is sound like the driveshaft would be toasted with the symptoms I have?
Forgot to add, axle ujoints look fine, driveshaft ujoints look fine and the driveshaft seems to be bound, you can't even wiggle it for ujoint play
