Okay so the other day I was out screwing around with some of the guys (see pics section) and I got my rear-end so flexed out that the u-joint was slapping the muffler as it turned. I didn't think to get any pics cause it kinda freaked me out and I hurried and hopped back in the KJ and back it off the mound. Just curious if anybody has had this happen.

Can't say I've heard of that happening to anyone.

Umm, I do not believe the exhaust is lined up in a way to where it could do that. I would say your exhaust is bent.
