Bearing that in mind, what do we do?
Drive sensibly and take it EASY! When you are out climbing that rocky hill and your wheels start to bounce, do you give it the gas? Most broken driveshafts, U joints, axles, transmission and transfer cases are the result of high stress impact loads. Easy, elegant four-wheeling will save your driveshaft and other equipment every time. We do realize there are those situations where pedal-to-the-metal is the only way to go and, well, we take our chances then.
Proper driveshaft setup and maintenance serves four-wheelers well. If you have questions that haven't been addressed in this feature, give Tom Wood at Six States a call. Doing it right the first time insures that a pesky broken driveshaft won't ruin that trail ride you've looked forward to for a year. Remember, getting it right precludes "getting the shaft."
