I've seen that a few times in locked dana 30 fronts in Jeeps. Terrible predicament to be in when in steep, boulder filled creek bed.

This video came out in 2012, so it has been out for a while, but this is the first time I’ve come across it.I can’t find much information about it, other than it is called the “Thunder” and appears to have been made by a company called Triple Action LLC, which is an FFL based out of Logan...www.thefirearmblog.com
He thought it was stabby!Why would you want to put your face next to a porcupines ass?
If you put a dana 60 in it that never would have happened. Well...
Yep...If you put a dana 60 in it that never would have happened. Well...
Me and the guys that I used to rock crawl with got 1.5 seasons out of a low pinion 60 gear set. High pinions went about 5 years. Both could be roached any time you wanted with big stickies.If you put a dana 60 in it that never would have happened. Well...
I used to cut off at least 3-4 per year with ears broken off. You would be surprised how high some guys have their clutch brakes adjusted from the floor. Guaranteed a couple guys who only drive trucks at harvest time are going to break one before the cutting is done every year. Not to many over the road trucks coming in for that. They usually just needed an adjustments or a fiber.The clutch brake does not engage until the pedal is to the floor, if you press clutch brake to the floor while moving you will not have a clutch brake anymore, lol. And without a clutch brake it’s going to be a long day trying to get it into gear from a stop. Have you ever been at a light and hear a big rig grinding the transmission trying to get it into gear. Yep he smoked his clutch brake and he’s not happy. If your a good driver you will likely never stop. You adjust your speed to catch the lights, take what traffic or lights gives you. Driving a truck made me a much better driver.
Yah those Dana 60 axles are really strong.If you put a dana 60 in it that never would have happened. Well...
Definitely a Dana 60 with a broken pinion gear. The bright orange rust means absolutely nothing as far as strength, it just means someone went off roading through water and didn't change the fluid when they got home. If the rust was black or the gears were pitted that would be a different story. There is a reason no one runs Dana axles in any serious drag racing anymore, the all run 9" type axles because they are so much stronger. I am a MOPAR guy and it pains me to admit that. I would rather run a Chrysler 8 3/4" than a Dana. Shit even the brand new Drag Pack Challengers are running 9" rear ends and Chevy Turbo 400 transmissions.They most certainly are. First one look like someone tried to re-tube it, maybe to narrow it, and didn't put enough tube in the center section to support it. The welding on the bracket is masterful. I am not sure the second pic is a 60. I do know I would not blame the axle when some rusty ass gears come poking through the housing.
Normally wet. Earliest in the season its been dry.
Why are so many of these chicks holding a phone up to their face? Are they taking the picture themselves in a mirror?
Honorable Mention (the one prone on the Piano) 08/24
The rust means there is rust inside which is not good. Many many different ways that could have helped it break. I have flogged mine with 38s and 300+ horsepower for enough time, and wheeled with enough people who use 30s, 44s, 60s, 70s, 10, 12 and 14 bolts, 9" and totyota axels with alloy shafts, to figure if someone broke the head off the pinion gear with those little tires, they did something.Definitely a Dana 60 with a broken pinion gear.

People dont work that way. They will defend their views until their death. Future generations might laugh or hang their head in shame. Hell, history might judge us as the evil, will you hang your head in shame?
