I'm as easy on the throttle as I think anyone gets, yet I've shatered 2 rears in almost back to back weekends. It wasnt from the mud riding it was traveling from point A to B to other mud holes LOL. Do like GWC says, and DO NOT get it in a bind. I will say that the two I broke, were the last remaining stock 03 axles (which explains alot!) I had left. Ive since replaced them with 06+ axle shafts with 03 ouboard joints and 06+ inboard joints. I do have G O RI LL A'S coming though for the rear. Also, i've came out of some nasty, off camber, thick, muddy ruts with the locker on, and never busted a joint thus far. Only shattered rear axels from being wedged, and being to wide. Gave it a little throttle and SNAP! lol I believe the axels I have now are MUCH sronger than the 03's. They are the silver colored shafts, and much bigger round.
