 Re: Anybody ever seen this before
Nope I just ordered another one last week.
I'm sorry I took it the wrong way. I know in the past u stated your frustration with the vibration so I took it as bashing.

 Re: Anybody ever seen this before
Maybe the instant reverse kicked in while you were motoring forward? Clutch locked up at full power? Snap goes the crankshaft! I wouldn't know I own a MB.............I don't have reverse.........a clutch (direct drive fuck the clutches) or broken crank........  Bad deal either way for the owner of the GTR.

 Re: Anybody ever seen this before
This happened to my buddy last year while we was digging a ditch. I was busting it and he was following to dig and the crank cracked in the same spot.
