A few pic's from my busted rear end
I was at the Norwalk with Dave, JaRRod, Tom, Trent, and Kevin. All while everyone was running 9.3's and faster in there Evo's (AZZHOLES) I was replacing a rear end
I figured I would share the pic's with everyone of what happens after 3 years of racing my car... I just figured an axle before this
My dog 9sec9 came through with lending me his rear end to get home Thanks Tom
It is a complete loss, I was gonna rebuild the rear end. I called the dealer and got a quote of $500 to rebuild it for parts and come to find out the VIII rear end is different from the IX's, I figured they where the same?... but the only way to get the parts at that price was if I give the parts manager a ride at the dealer He couldnt beleive the car went a 9.8 with EVERYTHING still in the car... A/C, ABS, Air Bags, seats and all while driving to the track and home again Then later apon inspection I found the cast iron housing was busted internally
Dont worry Tom I am on the search

Oh snap!!!! sucks Jeff.
That is one thing I had not really looked into for my build , is the rear end. 2 broke in a week here.
Is there anything availible that is truly stronger than the stock stuff????
