Man i just cant make the picture thing work. But where the inner cv meets the front diff housing there is like about a 1.5 inch gap and i can see the shaft that goes into the diff. and its leaking fluid. I can grab the axle and move it back and forth mabey a half inch. it looks kinda jacked up but thanks for help guys

 

put it in 4wd go on a dirt road and giveer or jack up the front of the truck... sounds like you did..
did you hear a bang?? was there any bouncing?? were u wheeling?

 

i did hit a hole doin like 15 mph in 4-lo. the hole was hidden by the grass. i hadnt been back where i was at in a while and i didnt see that friggin hole. but it threw me all over the place, and yeah that was a hell of a bang when my head wacked the roof. so im asuming that when it happened. now that im thinkin about it there was a wierd squeal for a minute rite after that. at the time i thought it was a pebble between the pad and rotor or somethin cause it stopped kinda quick. but that kinda sux

 

could be worse.. atleast what i would do is unlock the hubs...tell the passenger to hold on ,heavy on the skinny and let the welded rear prerun me to the road
i wanna see some ifs vids
ill make sure to get some tommorow!

 

i think the reason i cant put the pics on here is either my computer is jacked up or operator error. mabey someone would be nice enough to let me send them to their email and you could post them?

 

yeah or go to photobucket sign up its free then besides your picture in your album just hit the img button and it will copy to your clip board a link you post on yotatech

 

isn't the inner CV held in the diff case by a snap ring?

 

Yeah, one puny snap ring.

I almost broke one today, by the famous "two wheels in a deep rut two wheels spinning and then they came back down" method. I hit the brakes though as the front tire fell, so it slowed down quite a bit. Lucky I didn't get stuck too.

 

Look man, im an idiot when it comes to computers. but i tried that and it says my pic isnt the right format or some stupid crap and i dont what to do about it. i did it the same way ive done it before so ??? Computers suck donkey dong

 

today i pulled of my skimpy skid plate and got a better look at my cv problem. i can grab the inner joint and pull it towards the wheel almost enough for the shaft to come out of the diff. i know thats not sposed to happen. also i can spin the axle with out the drive shaft turning. did i destroy my diff or is it just the cv?

 

it's possible the diff is broken.
if you slide the cv all the way in and turn it, does the drive shaft or other wheel spin?
also, if you want me to host the pics, I can. pm me and I can give you my email address and I'll put them on my server then give you the code necessary to display the pics here.
