Thanks, I am pretty sure it is in working order. I need to get over to my truck again, I was talking to some mechanic today and he said it might not be broken - could just have been loose bolts and the axle fell out. That would be great! Although I don't think it's the case. I would like to just buy an axle for the ease of replacement and possibly cheaper - although I'm not sure if the rear-end differential is locked up, and the mechanic I was talking to seemed to think I would be best just replacing the whole thing.
