None! I just got back from tahoe too. Comming off the moutain she was fine no dragging, sliding all good till i got to the bottom. Parked went in the store came out and started to back out the parking spot and pow. First i thought it was a huge ass pot hole i didnt see when i parked. I dont realize how lucky i was till talking to people and hearing stories. So now im kinda trippin on the right side. Should i replace that too before it goes? How can you reall tell its going bad before it breaks?

If it's me I certainly would just to be on the safe side. How many miles are on your yukon? I would have assumed that you would have been hearing odd noises coming from that axle and such before failure but maybe I'm mistaken about that.

...Parked went in the store came out and started to back out the parking spot and pow.

FWIW, it seems to be common among all vehicles that front suspension failure occurs during backing while turning at parking lot speeds. That must be what puts the most stress on the ball joints. Back when I had a Sunbeam Tiger, that was the common scenario for failure (though far more frequent than it should have been due to faulty design). Thankfully, that's when yours broke. Curious to know age, mileage and any other history of that part. Yes, I'd replace the other side, too.

Would love your thoughts /pics on the cargo liner.

The front and 2nd row came in the mail today. Still waiting the middle section between the captain chairs and the cargo mat. I will definitely let you know if it was worth the purchase.

What branch you serve in? What job do you do? I'm Air Force here, Crew chief by trade. Always enjoy meeting other military members. @aflumb

In the Air Force also. Originally a vehicle mechanic for 14 years, then cross trained to Fleet Manager. still in the shop just a different side.

Today I got a surprise package containing Weathertech liners, to replace the Husky ones I had.
