Blown U-Joints and a hell of alot of mud! (facebook content haha) 56K NONO

Well went out with a solid group of guys at least lik6 or 7 rigs to the mud pits up island...
had a WICKED time as per usual.. i was the only truck that didnt end up getting stuck, and i ended up pulling damn near everybody out... RANGER FOR THE WIN.

However, i did blow my ujoints in the rear... got the truck home and washed up, then off to the stealership she went for warrantied new parts!

PICS! (i hope they work.. their facebook pics but im way too lazy to upload em all here again)

ENDED UP RIPPING HIS ENTIRE BUMPER OFF!! BUT I got him out.

i think they would have said the lift caused the problem. not the tires. however, i think any "off-road" driving would void certain warranty work. i'm sure if my dealer saw my dented skid plate and silver lake/ORV stickers. then did the math. they wouldn't have replaced my water pump do to a bad seal.
