Uh, huh. See??
There was a lot more forces at play than simply *dropping* the Scout
onto the front axle housing.
It had to do with some speed, raising the Scout more than a few feet in
the air with the suspension completely unloaded, and then dropping the
Scout into the face of a jump, which promptly kicked the nose of the
Scout straight up in the air while breaking the housing in half, and
knocking the top off the jump. :D
..and it still didn't break to where the axle hit the ground. It did
SMILE to the crowd though.. also bent the long side axle shaft, broke
the carrier, broke the housing, and a bunch of other stuff..
