Ok,
Rumbling around on the beach at the end of the road in Kauai, my front driver strut broke in half and is being held in by the spring (barely) which is still compressed but sprung outward towards the inside of the rim barely not touching when wheel is straight.

It was a heavy ride out of Polihale, took over a hour to get out of the roads at walking speed not being able to turn more than 2-4 degrees.

I lifted with new AC springs and shackles so I know getting it fixed on warrenty is out.

***Ordered strut... now questions:

Anyone have this problem w/ or w/out AC springs?

Do you think the shock maxed out and then hit hard enough to blow?

Time to keep modding and put new UCA's to fit longer struts?
Are they out there yet?
