Rear diff front bolt........help!!

[rstoughy]

Hi , " from original post", did you find out what this problem was , bugs me when when problems and ""fixes ". don't get posted back up, always interesting to find out, as always like to do all my own services and repairs.

Not sure TBH Chad. It was still present at the end of the season and at the ring I snapped a front disc so car has been laid up since. Just finished rebuilding bottom end so hopefully get it out for some testing soon and see whats what.

Bloody hell, missed this.......hope it didnt hurt pride, pocket or limbs too much

Just one of these things Shim. Pushing braking later and later every lap and the ABS kicked in on a "lump" in the track. No brakes just when I needed them most and by the time id lifted off and re applied I was on dirty tarmac way past turn in point.

Luckily it was a double header so a run round Edinburgh to pick up parts and a very late night at the circuit got me back out on the Sunday for the next round. Car didn't look pretty but grabbed a 2nd place out of it.

Ouch Paul :banghead:

Hope it's all repaired now. Did you ever sort the diff issue?

Double post.

Auch these things happen Graham.
This picture was 2 weeks later at a Hill Climb so some late nights and yet more hair loss and we were ready again.

Diff wise Martin sorted me some other bushes so that combined with the repair of the bolt seemed to have done the trick.

Have you thought about engine mounts being torn, chad

Just to add Chad I actually removed the mounts and although ok they were cracked and leaking so these have also been replaced.

They do indeed mate, got to expect it once in a while :thumbs:

Looks great, god knows how you've kept yours so clean whilst racing it, suppose door to door racing causes a few more dents than just racing the clock
