Destroyed a diff yoke.

Postby WarWagon » Thu Jul 09, 2015 11:22 am

This is the first part I have broken on my Corv8 that was actually my own fault. Before I tore the differential down I originally thought I snapped the pinion shaft, all I heard were horrible spline slipping noises. This happened on a really sticky road surface and me being aggressive with the clutch, probably the giant 295/60 series tires helped too.
This is the longer yoke or left side.
