Broken axles
 
I want to hear everyones experience with broken Ranger axles. How often does this occur?? I mean, isn't this why everyone upgrades to expo axles? Lets see some ranger 28spline carnage...!

28 spline, No Slip installed. Was spinning in 4L in snow at Centralia, snapped shaft when it caught. TRASHED both backing plates, shattered pass side shaft. Rebuilt entire axle in Holiday Inn parking lot. Made friends that will last a lifetime!.....thanks Tom and John!
