Depends on where it broke but you are likely looking at a whole new shaft assembly on that side.
I wonder if the boot was torn for a while & maybe you didn't know it?
Yes it is independent and it is a CV joint. It is on the axle shaft and it sits in a clevis that is mounted to the transfer case or whatever it is they call it.
Tom - Thanks! We are just lucky that it was this particular kid that was riding it at the time. You can trust that she drives slow even when unsupervised. She does wear a helmet all the time too.
