1993 Bounder with broken axle twice in 2000 miles
Had driver's side rear axle replaced in November, now driving it for the first time broke again! Coincidence? Or just bad luck? Anyone else with rear axle problems when towing a vehicle?

The original mechanic had to replace the entire hub and part of the axle housing when he installed the welded axle back in November.
Can't help but feel like I should go after the first mechanic for installing an axle that he knew might not hold with a weld which really put our lives in danger.
I hope the current shop is good and sets you on the right path. I hope it is a real heavy line transmission/axle shop that knows how to set the gears, pinion seal etc. If they are good I would be tempted to rebuild the entire axle assembly.
