I don't see how it could possibly slip that far. I've never heard of any symptoms other than the sound of the bolt head & washer rattling around in the wheel behind the center cap.Thank you for the info and picture. So either substandard material or bolt preloaded beyond recommend preload. So I‘m assuming that when the bolt fractures the axel is allowed to slide towards the diff and then disengaging the splines, correct? Truck does not move when this happens (at least in my case) other than when 4 wheel drive is engaged or maybe diff lock (which I did not try). Thanks again for the info.
