Well... I took my car out my Dad's over the weekend and got it off the trailer with some work using a floor jack and literally driving out from under the car to get the car off the trailer since it was locked up.

Dad pulled the rear end yesterday and we pulled the diff last night. Here was the damage.

I am not sure exactly what happened first, but obviously all of the teeth are missing from the pinion gear, but I also had two broke off bolts that hold the gear to the differential that were rolling around and probably locked the rear up. Once we removed the bolts the diff would spin.

There was no gear oil left and you could tell that everything was very hot. Dad is on his way to Tulsa to pick me up a complete rear today.

I should have it back together this weekend.[/url]
