ummm. i think i broke something :(
welp. I was playing with the car yesterday and desided to have some fun. ...
brought her down a side road. took the turn and dropped the hammer...all of a sudden the car let out an awful noise from the lower backend... kinda a grinding. car started jerking around a bit...I crawled it home and parked it...gonna take a look at it in a day or so...
I'm hoping it's just the rear or universals. been waiting for an excuse to redo them.... i'm praying it's not the transmition though...that would suck
will post up more info as i get it.

Sounds like you popped the rear. Hard to tell without looking at it. Hoosiers + stock rear = bad news. I'm surprised that mine hasn't grenaded by now.

Yeah. The diff is pretty much the weakest point in the drivetrain. That's why I'm amazed that mine's held up for this long.

Way too much work and money to make it happen for me. I priced one out at Sprakers a few years ago. 2k to have everything setup for my car.
