Thanks, going to try like crazy dont know yet exactly whats tore up. Normally when a truck nose's over as bad as this 1 did to get the back tire that far up on the sled the whole drive line is junk i will know tomowrow when i get it disassembled, but there is a chance it will be fine but i doubt it.:doh:
Here are the pics of the top gear in the dropbox on the left and a new gear on the right

Thats ugly man. I guess you found out how good of a job you did on your bump stops. But its a very bad way to find out.

Thanks, The recall on my tack only said 5k but i know it went higher then that but dont know how far i have started it up and it sounds fine so i think it will be ok, the gov should have caught it before the rpms got insane

:hehe::hehe: you can come drill the holes for us :hehe::hehe:

solid is overkill, not in this situation but in normal conditions, tubing is just fine, we are going to check into double wall tube this time, even if we have to double it up ourself.

just when you think your done working on it something like this happens:kick:

Solid may be overkill but you never know what situation may come up. But it could have been alot worse as said. Biggest thing is just get better and don't hurt yourself any worse getting the truck back together.
 
Man that sucks for sure! I'm glad you are alright. Like already mentioned, the truck can be repaired. It is crazy all of the teeth are gone from that gear.
 
Thanks guys, I finally got it tore apart yesterday and all the gears in the Profab are broke and the D60 is done as well i did how ever luck out and not hurt the 106 so we will hopfully be ready for Elkins next weekend and TS the following week.

And to think, some say Drag Racing is harder on a truck, I want to see one of them racers bust a Profab!
 
That is good to hear, hopefully you get it all back together before TS at least.

Good luck getting it back together man---realy sucks.Talk about highs and lows,damn keystone to this!
