WTF,that's a CAST slip yoke.  Damn fine forging line if not. Post some closeups of the broken edges.

doug I wonder if I can get your sig line pic turned into a flag for my buggy?  :o ;D
of course you can guess but you have to forget what I told you first!  ;D

fabbr they claim they are forged but visual inspection kind of looks otherwise. I will get some close up pics this weekend, I gave the pieces to my dad for analysis, he spotted a bad spot in the material he wanted to look at closer. I couldn't say no, he is the M.E. after all.

If they (the parts) were made in China "Forged" may mean copied!

As in forgery where they simply copy a quality part from another part of the world! The shape anyway. Not the metal quality!

Lots gets lost in translation of the languages....  ;)

Plastic explosive?

Hopfully no other damaged, as they tend to fling around violently and tear crap up.   Once saw a van break front u-joint on driveshaft, do rear end catapult. :o

That is a cast parting line if I ever saw one. The way it split along the length also indicates cast to me anyway.

actually with the diff they just drop for the most part but it did bend one rod. no big deal really with the 6 link I still have 3 holding me up and the aluminum radius rods are only $9.99 a piece.

I'm sensing some doubt about the 2500rpm thing. ;D  I love when people call and say they weren't pushing the rail only jumped 2' off the ground! later on the rest of the story comes out! I wasn't in the sand box just the dirt but the rest could be right.

here are a few close ups of the replacement slip yoke that is supposed to be forged but I am going to have to make a call to rockford now.

I cleaned up the first two pics a little better until I get them back this weekend.

doug I really like the mirror's!

Master's right - that really does look cast, not forged. Not just the mould part line, but the coarseness of the grain in the surface finish.
