and the end broke off when i was trying the knock the axle out!!

Damn, that's busted up bad! What's it made of, that new, "glass steel"?

Bush,

I see this more and more these days, surely it's warrantied?? Maybe I missed your mods, why are you running them anyway?? Lift?? They have a problem with the heat-treating process, which is obivous by the brittleness of your break.
I've heard they are made in China, although Gorrilla claims they are not.

my rhino is stock other than grizzly cdi and 27inch xtrs. i got the gorilla axles after i broke 3 stock axles in a year. i have had the gorilla axles for over two years so no warranty!! about 3 months after i got the gorilla axles the rear diff mounts broke and i busted a boot on the axle and when i went to knock the axle out of the cv joint the way gorilla advised me to the end broke off just like in the pics i posted and gorilla would not warranty it!! they sad i done something wrong :evil: !! so i just stuck the axle back in the cv joint and it has worked untill now. dont know if that had anything to do with it breaking or not!!! i ordered a axle shaft from gorilla for 80bucks but after shipping and them adding the clips that hold the cv in the diff that i didt need it was 125$$

that sucks big time i wonder why some have issues with stock axles(like you) ans some dont(like me) i dont know that many people runnin Gorilla axles but all that are seem to have major issues with them

may just be the size 14s pushing the skinny pedal

well my 13s usually got mine to the floor so cant be that? and rollin 230 in driver seat plus gf sittin shotgun with a cooler full of and food so that cant be the problem

Jumping and holding it WFO is one way to break them. I do think stock are tougher from what I have seen and heard.

RF.net thay seem to have alot
of problems with Monkey axels.....

pate is right there not treating them properly.
if thay snap like that....

Man you should have asked around, I never break axels , just cvs. I probably have the one you need for shipping only.

I've seen that one before. Here's my Gorilla from a few weeks ago. I had it two years as well.

yellow, did you get an all new axle with cv's or did you just change the axle bar??
if you just changed the bar did you have any trouble getting the broke axle out of the cv joint.

i bought the bar $80. I was able to fish the broken part out of the CV.

yellow i was refering to the big part of the axle with the end that is still locked in the other cv?

sorry bush. no, i did not have any problems removing the bar from the cv. I placed the bar in a vice and took a large ball-ping and gave the cv a quick hit. the cv came right off with no problems. the c-lip even stayed on the axle.
