I tempted the Jeep gods and paid the price!

How about the backstory?

Axle? Gears? Locker? Tire Size?

Terrain? Throttle Position? What were you doing?

Inquiring minds want to know...

Yes, 33's and a locked Dana 35 with 3:55 gears. How did you know, who are you and why are you stalking me? LOL
No real catastrophic incident. Had it out in the woods a couple of weeks ago and all seemed fine. It started making a low rumble about two weeks ago, and got progressively worse until I parked it last week. For all I know, those teeth have been laying in the housing for a while, and it was the bearing that went bad. I got another 35, tossed my locker in, put on some new brake shoes, and she's good to go!
