This is what mine looked like when I pulled them out. They were chained also.

It's from all the extra tourque of being in 4 low, stuck on an obstacle, lower gears, lower t-case gear.  This tourque is transered through the drivetrain to your motor mounts and will eventually tear stock mounts apart.
