pb4ugo,

The reason I quoted your post is that your reply to the thread said the log and strap method to hold the axle from coming out was "standard operating procedure" for Jeepers. The tone of the post suggested it was not an uncommon occurrence.

You’re certainly right all manufacturers' vehicles have mechanical issues (and post 3928 sure looks like a Chevy K-10 pickup to me). However, some brands have higher incidence of breakdowns than others. AND, some manufacturers are more customer-centric in dealing with problems.

I’ve owned Toyotas, and I’ve owned Jeeps. In my personal experience they are at opposite ends of that spectrum. I will very probably buy another Toyota. Hell will freeze over before I buy another Jeep, or any Stellantis product for that matter.

I owned a Jeep CJ7 with hard top, full doors, and V8 for about 4 hours back in the late 1990's or early 2000's.
