If you have the Forged UCA’s and haven’t replaced them or at least replaced the Upper Ball Joints yet. I’d get on it. I’ve never seen a ball joint come apart like that. I was in LE for 26 years and worked a lot of collisions. I’ve seen them shear off in collisions and I’ve seen them shear off on the trail but never just come apart going down the road.
To get back on the road required, new upper ball joint (moog), lower ball joint, new CV axle, new brake hard and soft lines, and new abs sensor wire.
I also have to order a new headlight and a new bumper. Probably going to end up getting both headlights so they match and may end up replacing the lower control arm on that side since everything got tweaked. I also have a new set of UCA’s ordered that will be going on as soon as they get here.
