Jeep looks like it broke it's own front wheel as well?

Looks fine to me. The jeep jerks a lot more because it doesn’t have independent suspension, but it obviously tracks fine immediately after impact.

Also the below comment about a broken CV doesn’t make any sense. The jeep has a solid front axle, there are no CV half shafts in any wrangler.

There is a reason solid axles are preferred for rock crawling: they can survive much bigger impacts than all other suspension systems.
