<p>[QUOTE="ironeagle2006, post: 7317084, member: 15710"]I had a remanned rear end let loose in Des Monies IA in early 97. The original one in the truck had busted after 1.1 million miles on the truck with a slightly hopped 444 Cummins hammering her hard for 9 years. Well I had written up the truck since the replacement was put into her every week saying something was wrong with the reman. Shop foreman was like dumb ### driver does not know his head from a hole in the ground. Well that night the rear pinion shaft burned off her inner bearing dropped into the spiders doing almost 70 just past the 35 80 split. To say there was carnage in the driveline is putting it mildly. It destroyed the rear end gear the housing was cracked all 4 axles broke threw the intermediate drive shaft out from under the truck into the median and then snapped the thru shaft and that damaged the front rear end gear of the set. I spent 4 days in Des Monies waiting on parts. The foreman got his ### reamed out not by the Bossman but by his wife. I evidently performed coitus interrupts on their anniversary night when I called their house to let them know what the hell happened.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
