Default Mmmm... crunchy



I finally got around to pulling the rear cover off my 10 bolt. After most of the fluid drained, I swept this stuff out with my hand. Mind you, I did the damage back in January. I have another car to drive, so no rush to fix it.

Some JB Weld will put it back together. lol.

I would never run a spool on my car if it was street driven, my friend swapped out his spool for a tru trac even though he only really drove it to the track or shows. They aren't fun. Get a midwest 9inch, they are friggen awesome.

For right now, swapped in a used torsen. Eventually 12 bolt or an S60.

Does anyone have a spare crosspin for a torsen carrier? I just pulled my used carrier off the shelf... no crosspin. It was getting dark and I couldn't see well in my garage, so I gave up looking for the night.

I'll try and find a picture online, otherwise I have nothing. It's the block that you remove so you can pop out the c-clips and remove the axles. It's held in by a 5/16" headed bolt.

This is the best I could do as far as a picture of it. Click the link, scroll down to the 2nd page. It's more of a "paddle" rather than a cross pin.
