had the same thing happen a few years ago on my pickup. On our way back from shed hunting, we were going through a canyon. I usually haul ass through it but for some reason that day I was going slow. Girls and my friend even asked why, didn't have an answer. We pulled into Mcdonalds right after that canyon and it busted right there in the middle of the parking lot. Would have been a hell of a ride in that canyon if it busted then.
Glad to see you were going slow when it broke!

Let me guess, you drive a 1 ton with oak trees for smoke stacks, 12" lift kit and 40" tires to pull a single place lawn mower trailer?
