Traveling along rt 89 in new hampshire could hear rumbling noise and when we got to rt 4 in vermont the rear end dropped and started dragging on the road. After checking both rear swing arms snapped at the rear axle. If this had happened while driving 60 - 65 mph on interstate rt 89 we could have been hurt or killed.
