Looking for a little bit of advice here I guess. Started tearing my TJ down for gears today and when I pulled my axles I noticed the drivers side has some terrible wear on it. A little back story on the Jeep, I owned it for a few years and sold it. The person I sold it to snapped a rear axle and replaced them with Yukon 4340 axles. This is the current condition of the drivers side axle:
That spot is where the bearing rides. The passenger side axle is completely fine and has normal signs of wear on it. These axles have maybe 10k miles on them at the most. What should I do here? Contact Yukon and try to get a replacement? What would be causing this?
Also, what kind of unit is this? I’m assuming it’s not just an open diff? No real markings on it
