Devilish34's BOOM Well along with MikeP and several other Devilish34 broke his car Saturday also.
Although John's isn't as impressive as all the parts mikep broke he did manage to break the drivers side axle. Here are some pics of the axle and the diff. I didn't take the diff apart yet but it did mess up the splines in the carrier when the axles broke and there is a 1/2 long piece of axle somewhere in side the diff

yeah I am not sure why it broke where it did either. It should have been engaged all the way up the splines not just the end. Almost seems like the axles was popped out or something.

Definitely odd the splines are only torn up on the outter end ive seen splines torn clean off the axle all together but never like that, looks like the axle may have walked alittle
