Default beartracker axle broke??

I think i broke my rear axle... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] ok here i will set the scean well hold on i have 25 (stock22) itp 589's , ok well i was going up a steep but short side or a ditch and i gased it trying to spin out and i heard a click and it pulled really hard to the right and of course i got stoke... SO my buddys behind me told me my left tire was the only one spinning. SO i held the brake and gased it and of course the left tire spun and right notin.... so i rode it home and the only cool thing was that all 250 cc's were going to the left wheel so it spunn like crazy... so when i got home i jacked up the rear and BOTH tires spunn!!!!!!! so i held the left one and it shook and stopped and acted like it really wanted to spin but cant.. So my question to yall before i tear into it what do you think it it is??? the axle? some kinda joint? any help would be appreciated thanks!

My guess would be the splines on the end of the axle shaft , or the hub, is stripped . If the axle broke, i believe the wheel would start to pull out of the housing, and it would get bad, real quick.
This would also explain why both wheels will spin when its jacked up. Theres still enough friction to spin the tire when the load is off.
Pull off the right tire, and hub...look inside the hub, where its splined to the axle.
