Nothing on the track, nothing on the spot they dumped it, nothing on the flatbed, and nothing on the ground 3 days later now. I assume the pumpkin's seal would have blown a bit or something.
It's very possible that it broke without leaking, but maybe you'll get lucky. Looking at the picture (and going off of my rear end, which I recently took apart), it's possible that the impact only broke the C clip that holds the axle in place. This is a $5 part. Fingers crossed.



QUESTION: It jerked when you tried to drive it after the fact?
