Never even thought it was possible to break one a these things. Bet he'll replace it once you let him know. Just call and tell him what happened and ask if he has ever had anybody report this happening. Without you even askin I bet he'll offer it. I've talked to him several times through the years about suspension issues, I won't say he's a best buddy type person but he is a wealth of knowledge and has always been willin to share it.

When i told him I had over 100,000 on his bar and had never rebuilt it and that it was still tight so i couldn't afford to just throw parts at it he sent me the rebuild kit on his dime.
