he broke the passenger side I believe..
I think it depends which side you break really, as to whether or not it will drive on it's own power, or how badly it broke.

I snapped the stock driver's side axle.
I had one stage 1 zzp axle shipped express on Monday, got here thursday night. Installed it.

The passenger side is still stock and is fine.

And Justin, I was under the 1/4 by the time I got to the VPC, fortunately.

should be in cali by 8 november

Sorry to get back so late lol, yes it wouldn't move under its own power because the actually axle was out of the boot so all it would do is just spin, and i have LSD.. the boot had ripped and all the lil pieces inside of it were all over the place.

yeah mine broke inside the boot. Literally in half, the shaft on the wheel side was fully bent at nearly a 90 degree angle. LOL It was bad.
I was ecstatic after I put a new axle in and put in gear.. Car had life! LOL

but i had to push the car about 200 meters to get it to the lift.. I got some weird looks LOL

I was able to ship it in time, fortunately
