YESSSSSSSSSSS! I finally got my car back together after a month or so of being down after shearing the diff. Did nearly all the work myself, but had some help from a couple of my GACC buddies removing the tranny and putting it back on. Got the new diff for free, it is a revised version and I had it welded for strength. thanks def goes to Progidy for showing me how to dismantle the tranny, showed me what to watch out for and he put it back together since our schedules kept interfering even though he had his HS finals teh same week! he graduated though, good for him. Several people also let me use tools I didnt have or have crappy ones for extended periods of time and that helped out bunches, she feels good, but i am breaking in the new lsd bearings so I dont want to throw her around too much yet. I look forward to hitting some mountain twisties this weekend to get ea feel for her, i have ben driving a Honda Civic in the downtime and it felt amazing being back in my car today. Thanks to TinmanMS6 for the two loaner cars to get me through this and the couple guys I called every now and then to double check stuff.
