alright so basically what happened is i was pulling this "fast" honda and boom, lol i still kept my foot in it but it sounded like a jack hammer was under my car like really bad, btw im in the middle of farmland, so i just call my buddy and tell him we gotta go right now, so we left and i drove on it for about 20 miles home, keeping in mind its about 1:30am in the morning, and im driving at about 10 mph, so i call my best friend and ask him a huge favor, go to my house, grab my truck and my rear end and drive it up here tonight so i can put it in tommorrw morning, well he got to slo at about 4:30ish, slept till 6 woke up and tried to drive it to the shop, almost made it antother 20 miles, and the last 2 or so were on the freeway, so i just said yeah i need to tow it just so it dont break on the big bridge, and i had to tow it, first time one of my camaro's have been on a tow truck since like 2004, i had a good run while it lasted lol.


so yeah the pinion had about 5 teeth sheared off and the ring gear about 2 or3,it was awesome lol

The 4.11s I just put in my 9" feel awesome! Not really as big a difference as I thought it would be though... If I had to do it again I'd spring for the 4.30s as well!
