Title: I DID IT!!!!
Post by: bandit86 on August 29, 2004, 12:18:38 PM

I thought it would never happen.  snapped my front differential housing.  I've been waiting for this for a long time.  all it took was 33s stuck in clay, back in the air, and a tiny wheelhop.

When something breaks it means its a weak link.
Go find a GV frontaxle and a Sammie rear center section.
(HAWKS) ;)
I know it aint cheap, but its cheaper than replacing the same part 3times. ;)
That happened to my friend (3times) so I learned from him the right way after I broke mine.

When you break you front end, The stock centersection as 2 spider gears where the Sammie has 4.  The stock spider gearshaft gets bent (you can't see it) and every time you reuse that one it'll chew up your gears and break again.
(From what my friend told me or he just wanted to sell me his Sammie center ;))
