Well I had some of my first major breakage last night with the 4bt. We were up at Utica Resevior (Slick rock trail) doing some night wheelin after a few drinks. Me and my friend(his cherokee) were playing on some rocks near the damn when we decided to climb some steps(granite). We made it up two rather large ones than tried the largest third one. He was able to crawl quite well with his automatic but when I tried it was a differentstory. The cruiser didn't want to crawl up it so I used some liberal throttle movements(were talking John Kerry liberal). I got three good hops then pink bam bam. I rolled back down to flat with the rear driveline slaming everywhere. the driveline twisted about half a turn (but didn't break) which shortened it enough for the splines to dis-engage. so I drove home 30 miles in 4 wheel high this morning and upon closer examination I found that I had tore the top eye out of my traction bar and also bent the mounting bolt going through it and the quarter inch mounting plate on the axle. so torque is cool and you all probably don't care. pics soon if the digi works
