Anyone got a case of JB Weld?

Thanks to IPS for dropping in a new unit, and thank heaven the wife only beat me half to death.

The V's are notorious for cracking the case, and clunking, due to poor pinion support and a horribly engineered bushing set up.

 

But the car is on its feet again good as new :)

 

(Never seen a diff break quite that bad either...)

 

Good work Andrew!;)

Man what did it sound like? I'm sure it scared the shit out of you..

 

Surprisingly, just one good bang and then the motor was on the rev limiter. The force of the parts coming apart but the pinion far enough away that it cleared the ring rear, so I could coast into a parking lot.

 

That sucks big time! Hopefully it won't happen to my V.

 

Get some support around it with the quickness.

Wheel hop is the death of the rear end.
