    Something is not right.... grinding noise.

    Picked up another zinna 325is (E30 #7)last night with a slushy in it, PO said it drives about a block then it's like a bike with no chain. I put a bottle of Lucas in the trans and drove home. Bucked a little, had some hard accel/ hesitation going on. Still made it home the 9 miles and put it up on stands and started movin stuff inspecting it. There is the normal play in the diff and both wheels spin the same way and do so easily so I am thinking the diff and driveshaft are cool. Any way to test this diff ,axles and tranny to see where the trouble is?

    OK...........

    So it looks like it has had a guibo delete done to it. Not sure if it's even a BMW driveshaft in there just sprayed exhaust nuts with PB going to pull in an hour or so.

                  Looks like maybe the center support bearing is not inside its "collar" like it should be
