my first rear... stock motor, T56, catback exhuast off road y pipe.... shattered the carrier, put a piece out through the cover, big mess.

got that fixed under warranty...

second rear... same motor/drivetrain setup... This time, the c clip apparently came out on pass side some how and another bolt became loose inside. all tore up. dealer said poor workmanship when last fixed, warranty wouldnt cover, dealer that did the work wouldnt either.. car got towed home

3rd rear, bought off ebay from cali, 350 shipped, came with all suspension and brakes, from a 2002 ws6 w/ 6000 miles only. i sold the extra parts for about 300 total and swapped the stripped rear in myself.

the last rear has lasted up to this point, while i had it, i upgraded all rear suspension and even tore the stock TQ arm in half. Rear is still going strong.
Now im pushing a full bolt-on cammed motor with a hi-pro clutch but i only run street tires, bad street tires none the less. i know im on borrowed time until i can get a 9" myself... and thats when i'll be getting slicks and a new steel driveshaft
