Default A little 10 bolt carnage...
Broke another 10 bolt. I had been breaking ring & pinion gears, but this one was a first for me... I thought it felt a little funny on the ride home lol

Loving the fact I have a 9" on the way. I broke teeth off my pinion and chipped some teeth on the ring gear a month ago.

I've never seen anyone break as many 10 bolts as you have. Expecially on the street with street tires. Something else may be up with that car....

Good luck with the new rear!

Does the 10 bolt break only on good trac at a launch? Will it break if your doing runs from a roll with ok tires and some lcas?

They can break going into 2nd or 3rd gear. Bob
