Thanks, I am home safely! What a mess. Driveshaft vaporized, parking brake assembly vaporized, spare tire had hole punched into it, fuel tank has huge dent, frame is dented.How are you making out?
I got home last night at 3AM - Note to everyone; A 2000 F350 Mason dump 7.3 ZF6 with a tri-axle trailer can haul a deuce with zero problems.
Does anyone know why the driveshaft/U-joint would fail like that with no warning? I will tell you that the PO literally did no maintenance (the grease fittings were DRY, I put like 10 plus pumps into each joint). I saw lines in the recovered u joint cap that looked like needle bearing wear. I don't want to put a new driveshaft in and have that happen again because of something else...
I hope you guys have a good trip and I will catch you at the next event!
Will
