Good Parts that Gave their Lives in Battle

78 Dodge dually: Going down country roads, and hear a noise. Start looking in the mirrors, right rear axle come almost out of the housing, running in the ditch. Bearing went out of it, causing the axle to snap the end of the housing off.

74 Dodge 3/4 ton. Lost the caps off the u joint on the rear of the driveshaft. Left the tool box at home. Had a spare u joint in the glove box. Took the caps off the spare, hammered them in as far as possible. Wrapped them in duct tape so we wouldn't lose them, and drove to a friends house.
