The problem hasn't been with any specific parts source, nor has it been exclusively Montero parts, it's just been a far too regular problem with aftermarket parts. A torque converter from NAPA, a front drive axle from O'Reilly, a motor mount from RockAuto...I'm about to just stop buying aftermarket junk because I don't have the time to replace parts a second time.

The axles that I got aren't reman, they're new aftermarket. Hopefully they will hold up to the abuse of 4-wheeling. If not, I'll still have the original axle shafts sitting in the garage.
