dont have a pic, but i once when i was wheelin, i saw a bunch of mexicans drivin a ford with a tree log for a front axle. they said that they broke the original axle, so they put a tree log on there to get them home. i have no idea how it worked, but obviously it did....

I call bs on the log front axle as a trail "repair" you might beable to make it work if you had lots of time in a shop with are your tools but how in the world would they keep the axle under the truck?

also pics or it didnt happen.
