    Im glad your ok man, but I highly doubt thats the issue that caused it. I had the same thing happen on my lifted scab and it was due to the tire shop not torquing my lugs.

    The dakota does suck horribly, but my neighbor might give me the 5.7 v8 outta his 1500.

    Maybe it was the C clip? Probably nothing to do with how you drive it, chances are it was on its way out. Crazy to hear, glad you are ok! Luckily you were in a big truck rather than an econobox!

    Did the axle shaft go with it too? If so then it was a clip. 8.8 or 9.75??
