Jack the front up and rotate the wheels with the hubs still engaged. If spinning both the left and the right cause the driveshaft to turn, then it might be your transfer case. I’d be more inclined to believe you wrecked a hub or snapped a shaft than just outright broke the chain. They usually start to skip, slap, and otherwise make noise before they let go.
WINNER!!! WINNER!!! CHICKEN DINNER!!!
The fuckin' driveside hub was very loose and missing two of the six bolts.
Tighten said hub up and replaced one of the missing bolts.
Started her up/shifted to Drive/drove her from street curb to my carport.
Fuckin'- A!![]()

Tried removing/unbolting the backseat floor-mounted seatbelt bolts in the Bronco.
The bolts would not budge!
I soaked said bolts in homebrew, veggie oil/acetone, over a period of hours.
Said bolts still would not budge....
Tomorrow the cut-off wheel will go to work.
Was chickenshit yesterday to drive the Bronco after the 'loose hub assembly' incident.
Might take her for a spin today.
Is the rear drive shaft too short now?
Exactly.
With the '99.5 F-350 front leaf springs; it moved the rear axle rearward 5".
So now the Bronco has 110" WB.![]()
I set a bunch of crap on the hood to put away in the garage later, does that count?
Was installing the new rear driveshaft.
Got to the very last bolt on the axle yoke...
Broke the mother fucker off.![]()
Apparently I over-torqued the bolts.
What is the torque specs on 1310/1350(?) yoke bolts?
What size are the bolts?
Good question.![]()
It takes a T-45 Torx socket; if that helps.
I think 5/16
