These things happen. It has been having more torque put through it than it was designed for over a bit of time now, so we could forgive the shaft for having enough. At least you've got a new one on the way I read!

Spoke to Rob storr yesterday, I am going to send him the bits and he will put together another one using my collars so i will know it will fit.
The rocklobster appears to have been on the jimny for quite a while as I spoke to another prevoius owner and it was already fitted when he had it.
Must me be - must be a s**t driver! :whistle:

I have had two Rocklobster boxes, one on an SJ and one on the Jimny and neither have destroyed propshafts.
However the SJ ate UJ's almost as frequently as the Jimny eats bearings.
