It seems like they go out on alot of models judging from the forums, although most are still within the warranty period. The diesel is lower HP, I would figure that would prolong the life, but there could be some other element I'm missing.
The output flange could be too weak, or the bearing for the rear shaft could have had a bad lot or something. It could be that the "lifetime" fluid needs changing or at least topping off. This has motivated me to change the trans fluid while Its already down, cheap insurance. If the trans goes thats beyond my rebuilding skills.
Got the new flange in! Side by side with the damaged one. Bearings should be in soon!
