The 30/60 alignment may have caused the wear/damage.

You're welcome for the help. I am not much of a mechanic but can sometimes ask good questions to narrow the possible issues.
Maybe it did cause the damage.....but as little as 4WD seems to have been used and low speeds typically associated with it, my vote is poor maintenance. I greased everything after doing the axles and it didn't look like anyone had done it in a while. I probably screwed it up using 4WD occasionally off the last 8 months or so without grease.  But you may be right....I'm 0 for 2 after buying axles for no reason and trying to argue with you on DS.

Left Jessy a message at High Angle and put in a part quote request with the CO yotayard outfit. Additionally with OCD making his generous offer, I'll have some options to weigh out.

With the CV being out, may also need to consider a whole new shaft all together.
