Gosh i knew it was bad but i didnt know it looked that bad. So i take it the new parts are already ordered?

 

What happened?

 

A tacky Indiana track last night.
I didnt light the tires when I launched and it started to bite hard and hop..........
BOOM!

Drove about 80 miles home in front wheel drive.

 

WOW!!! Ouch.

 

And to think these backwards sanctioning bodies still require driveshaft loops!

 

I think it might be single stack time....and maybe some loops

 

did u get a video?

 

Yeah its up there on the top of the thread.
It will take a little time to process...check back.

 

Justin if you go with a stack thats alot of chrome that will NEVER be clean lol

 

I'll second that!

DANG! that's crazy

 

WoW - that's awesome!

Great destructo pix!!!

Couldn't hardly tell it was bouncing in the vid - what'd it feel like?

 

did the same thing on my 7600 international. little spin little hop and it was all over.

and i also found out that driveshaft is very sharp when that happens!

 

Well it hopped once or twice and it kicked loose.
If you watch the video closely the frame/bed flexes by several inches.

What it felt like:
Well I felt the pop of the u joint.
Then it felt like the T case yoke and the driveshaft were having a cage match under the bed.
I got it shut down in about 1 second but it was like an eternity. Sort of the slow motion time thing when something bad happens!
