Well here is my contribution to tore up Tuesday today driving along coming back from my first delivery for the day, truck started to vibrate bad, I pushed in the clutch and started pulling over when KABOOM! as everything gets smooth then another big bang and hard jolt a grinding noise another big bang, jolt, and big bump. As I get to the shoulder knowing what just happened looked in the mirror to see my drive shaft that I just ran over about 50 yards behind me. So I go get it and realize my slip yoke is missing I later find it in the weeds down in the ditch. Luckily no damage to the shaft or the truck only thing broke were all 4 u joint straps, u joints, &the centering tabs on both yokes. So not a good day but could have been much worsepost-12689-0-58534900-1409106071_thumb.jpost-12689-0-08227000-1409106092_thumb.jpost-12689-0-31276100-1409106110_thumb.jpost-12689-0-69774900-1409106126_thumb.j

Thought I'd post these too this was a couple weeks ago. Just glad backing into the grass was not my idea. I figured the Tahoe wouldn't pull me out but I thought we'd try. And I was on to much of a lean to dump off the load. Was stuck pretty good wrecker broke my 5/8 chain.

Was it caused by the dreaded "mon back" ?
