Amigo rear suspension is new as Dallas pointed out.... (although has the same lower links and track bar) Just underbuilt on the third link mount.

I was disapointed in my front axle. The 5-760X crosses were snapping pretty easy. The Amigo's CTM failure (it died first and took the WARN shafts with it IMHO) was probably just a function of being beat hard for two years.

Brian Richmond's Detroit locker failure was likely caused by the manual hubs breaking on the truck. My rear shaft failure did not seem to hurt my No-Slip so that was handy.

The ARB install, uninstall, reinstall in Cody Shuman's rig was not really a failure of the locker just a line that got broken when they were trying to fix a bad seal.

I believe Tom Boyd replaced a Detroit the first day, but I'm not sure what had happened in the first place.

The ultimate Taco did well this year but it still broke a hub, and a superior shaft in its Dynatrac Dana 44.

Seemed like there was a lot of carnage, broken CV joints on the tracker, broken birfs on the Sami, broken rod on the aluminum CJ, broken d/s, axleshafts, hubs, detroit and engine on the other Dodge, broken d/s, steering box and serpintine belt on the EB, broken tranny on the yellow CJ, broken pinion on the XJ, not sure what else, but generally most problems were driveline related.
