We went I broke we came home. It was just about that short. Russ, Kay, Crazy Joe, Mike, Donna, And Jeff and I with Marlin as tail gunner went to Outer Limits Joe started off leading our group after a couple of hard spots he went right around a hard spot I went left now I was leading went aprox a 1/2 mile in a squeeze my second attempt I twisted the out put of the transfer case off inside the T-Case while doing that a rock about 18" in diameter ended up wedged between my gas tank and the right rear tire splitting my gas tank. About a 3" split. I got under the Jeep removed the drive shaft and Russ winched me back and around so I could get turned around. We waited for several rigs to pass and break and get repaired. Then we headed down Mike K pulling me Russ and Joe bringing up the rear. Mike and I made it down with no problems while at the bottom waiting for Russ and Joe another Jeep stopped and said I see you broke your front Axle Shaft I said no I split the out put shaft he said and the front Axle Shaft and he was correct. The next day Mike said he broke something thinking it was a ball joint was not sure as of then.
