Yes...here 'tis... the new MOAB proven 7 pice new-process / tracta CV joint!! This one decided to fail the last day I was in Moab while descending a steep slick rock on the 'Hell's Revenge' trail!! The pieces wedged into the housing and jammed the left front wheel ! After skidding it down to more level ground the pieces were removed.. no spares on hand so I had to finish the trail on rear drive only...thanks to my lock-rite I made it through just fine! The culprit was a severely worn bronze inner axle bushing!! I am tooling up to make some new ones and will have the old M-37 back together soon!! A fun time was had in Moab anyway!!!
