powersteering pump... blew the bearing around the shaft for the pulley.... sliding off a paved road into a washout on the side of the road..... got a little to aggressive using the steering wheel to work my way out....
Airdam... driving backwards too fast off a curb... front end came down and smacked the curb..
Coin holder... clip to hold it up broke. (old age?)
rearview mirror.... (15" sub producing tooo much bass for factory glue to hold on windshield)
front grille.... 18wheeler threw a rock the size of a golfball (broke facory honeycomb grille) got a 100bill outta it cause driver idnt want more issues with insurance...
front license plate holder.... happened with part #1
Wow, you guys are rough. I had my tailgate down with the tongue latch of my trailor up and pulled off. That caught my tailgate handle and popped it right with ease. Thats is for me.
Air dam - going off road - thing sat too low - now its off and its fine
Left front strut - too much bouncy bounce. On a side note - those worried about a Top Gun level kit 2.5 inches - I've had the front tires off the ground a few times - no problems!
The only thing I have ever broke was the clip for the rear sliding window and the only reason I broke it because i locked my keys in it and my spare was 6 hours away.
Nothing part of the truck. However I did runover my sisters Gameboy Advance that she "accidently dropped" way over to the right where she never goes right on my tire tracks on the ground. Sounds a little fishy.
However my truck is still too new to have anything broken on it.
Air damn torn off in a mud pit....tailgate dented hooking up a trailer after several beers....windshild cracked by rock....step rails bent and removed climbing out os a creek bed....fog lamp lense cracked by rock.....small dent in rear bumper compliments of my wife and a Wally World light pole.....pretty good dent in drivers door from some jerk second day I had the truck...many mild to not so mild scratches from tree branches...truck still looks sharp from a distance though...just don't get too close...
OK, so its late, and I was bored, so made this

got to thinking, what major things have you broke on you truck so far? Pics and vids are welcome too
Other thing I've been able to do is ground a wire that killed my map lights when you push on them. They still work with the dash switch and when you open the doors.
im curious about the power steering pump, i have been hearing a noise that i thought was in the power steering, did any of you notice any type of noise or any telltale sign before it went out
rattled a bolt that holds onto a front shock lose
that made the boots (in and out) blow
which made me bend the axel shaft
which shattered my gears...
water pump
rack and pinion
something about not being able to steer if my truck left the lot... :crazy:
nice pole in a parking lot put a nice dent in my back bumper
on my new truck...
so far, nothing but Texas pin striping all over, will not come out (hog hunting at night and not enough roads in the brush :rck: )
2nd, see my avatar, "oh shit" handle getting in truck one fine morning to come to work, just ripped it lose, fell out, coffee went everywhere...
umm lets see parked next to a cement base of a light pole with the wheel at full left then jumped get in a huge rush and just stepped on the pedal took out the hole rear panel, got rear ended so new bumper, and forklift with a cab on it the door smashed into the drivers side headlight and all, does that count oh almost forgot i broke one of the 2screws that holds the tailgate handle trying to install the tailgate lock that should have standard on all models starting back when they first made the truck
