the **** taper is whats holding the bolt into the frame still...otherwise, once the nut comes out, it'd be an easy swap.... I tried the torch...still no luck....I just picked up my Remington 870...wonder if that would work...........

Im about to roll this thing into the #$^@&$^# river!!

kinda lost there I got the torque rod end out of the axle mount...I'm using a few different punches...and a small sledge hammer but still cant get the torque rod end out of the frame mount. What other tools have you guys used?

having a **** of a time busting the torque rod ends out of the truck...the dog bone is off... but both ends are still in the truck (ripped out of the dogbone)

Sorry for not posting the pics...I'll do that right now! UPDATE - ok here they are! Im missing a picture though...of the dog-bone above the ripped out end link...it was up against the rubber bumper...but wouldnt slide past it until I lifted the body up a little with my hi-lift. I tried the...

Thanks for the heads up! [thumbzup]

This is going to be expensive. After spending 3 hours of ONLY pressure washing it...(seriously...I spent 3 hours just spraying the truck...)...I've found that most of the torque rod ends need to be replaced as they have almost all deteriorated...oh boy! :(

Im actually in Sacramento, California..but thanks for the offer! Would you be willing to sell/ship them?

OK...UPDATE!! I finally found a way to rotate the axle...and fairly effortlessly as well! :) I will post pictures to show how I did it in a few minutes Now, everything is aligned, and my axle is back to its normal rotation...the gap between the tandem is back! :) I just cant get the torque rod...

hah..ok..yea, I enjoy the BIG 6x6...definitely not going to bob it! OR part it out..this truck is in excellent condition (except for the things I personally break) lol...It's a keeper As for the hi-lift, yep...the big red...I had to use it just a few minutes ago so that I could lift the body...

"paid for"? All of my vehicles are paid for..My Deuce, my Denali, and my Harley.. and I have nothing against jeeps I said "i dont think so" to the *i believe sarcastic* comment from jeep-jeep why the **** would I part out a perfectly good condition deuce because of a broken torque...

Yes...this was something I should have caught. I did not notice this before we lest due to EVERYTHING being the same color, and melted together from the mud. Im thankful no one was hurt, and I didnt lose an axle. After hearing the noise, I began driving extremely careful incase of an emergency...

sooo...this torque rod issue is actually more serious than I had imagined.. Stretch, thanks for the link!

jeep-jeep...I dont think so Yea, I'm gonna go buy a pressure washer for it..but I mean, the torque rod ends can be replaced if the bar is fine? or do I have to get the whole assy. I do need to get underneath and check for any other damage...I checked a couple days before we went out...

Should I just replace the torque rod ends?

Thanks everyone for your opinions and ideas. Yes, we did a once-around before we left because I actually got stuck at one point in the day and had to have to jeeps pull me out hahah...wanted to make sure nothing was broken...which at that point, nothing seemed to be an issue. I'm going to pull...

I did not know that...I've seen these trucks do so much, and I've done a lot to mine...but never seemed to be an issue...but hey, now I know! And thankfully no one got hurt As for the brake line..thank you for reminding me...it looks as if the disconnected trailing arm has somehow rubbed...

I'm uploading them here as well :) thanks for the heads up

Well...maybe it wasnt that serious..however...Some may have read...after I spent the day at the local 4x4 park, on the drive home, the truck started making this HORRIBLE grinding sound...as if something was about to blow up in the transmission...It started out subtle in 5th gear on the...
