Get the JWCustomwurks rear steer lockouts. They take all the stress of the steering arm. You will have to break the axle c, and for 9 bucks there is not a better possible option. I cut my steering arm off and smoothed it all out. They are great!

I read it incorrectly thought he had broken an axle and wanted a strait axle. Some thing stronger than the original axle. Which the CVD Is. STRONGER. LIke I said I read it incorrectly. Sorry!!!

CJ, the aluminum ones are better. But If you need one (original) I have an extra. Free for you.

i did the same thing on my rear, left side to be exact. this of course happened the night before the comp so i drilled a hole through the remaining plastic and stuck a screw through. got me through the day without trouble minus the strange tire angle.
