About a week ago i was going down the road and went to take a left turn and head a huge clunk from the rear end. There was a halfinch of axle play on the drivers side. pushing the rotor into the caliper bracket. it freaked the shit out of me so i parked it. When i took the cover off the teeth on the spiders were ate up. Clips still good etc. Cant wait to build something new and fun!

Sexy brakes are covered, 3.90s are still perfect.

I really need upper housing bushings where do you think a good place for those would be?

Still looking at differential choices. both axles still look great too.

You can not beat a torsen for the money. They are absolutely one of the best diffs you can get that make these cars better in the corners and with traction in general. It actually throws more power to the tire with traction versus the stock garbage. I run the prothane inserts. Have had them on multiple cars with good success. Just ream out the upper housing bushing pieces and then slide these in. Use a lot of the supplied grease and they are solid.
