^^^That what I was thinking, also some *interesting* artwork

You must have hit that curb with some excess speed but glad your ok. I think you have a lot more to check out and replace than you might think, I would go through the rear end with a fine tooth comb. check everything on both sides, shackles and leaf springs, there could be damage one the other side that has gon un-noticed. Good luck with the repairs.

Well I honestly was not going over 20 mph. I hit the only 6 foot section of curb for 200 yards! It wasn't a big curb I guess I just hit it perfectly.

I taken a good look at everything and im going to start ordering parts tomorrow. It also bent the caliper bracket, the dust shield is trashed, and so is the whole parking break assembly... I did a good job lol! I think im going to raid the local junkyard for some parts.

That piece of plywood is the beerpong table, so when we get drunk we start drawing, the rest of the table is better... ahaha

I gave you the link that searches salvage yards in your area, you should try it. It's worked for me many times. It searches via zip code, you punch it in and it goes to work for yuh.

Yeah I took a look at that website, they are wanting 100-150$ for a stock used axle. I can get a stronger Yukon for $150 delivered. Im going to have to get the caliper bracket from the junkyard tho.
