Some of you may have seen an earlier thread from me about having my mute clunk in the rear end turn into banging on the track, and a binding feeling as the wheels go through the rotation.
Long story short, this was in my diff case. The one on the top left was jammed in the ring gear, causing the binding. The ring and pinion actually look good so maybe I don't have to find a new 3.25 afterall. But what in the world caused this! At first I started thinking the p/o maybe threw some bolts in there just to fuck with me... but then I saw there looked to be places for bolts in the ring gear, inside of the big mother bolts that hold it to the LSD. And sure enough that's where these came from, most of them are sheered off. As you can see one managed to come clean out...
