Halfshafts, I've known them pop out or snap randomly if toooo much exercise is given.
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

IT WAS THE DIFF!!
I'll go and get some piccies as soon as I persuade my toddler to stop painting the house with Weetabix.
This was a quick spin around the block just to see if the car would move under its own steam.....

Is that the Alfa that the engine came from? Did you just pull over at the side of the road and swap it with your Pinto while the owner was off
shopping?

I voted Diff
Yippeeeeee I was right
Do I get a Jaffacake
Or am i excluded from the competition due to the fact i was one of the people pushing you back from 10m up the drag strip
Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes.
By that time, who cares.
You're a mile away, and you've got his shoes

Hi If using an english diff with anything over 150bhp. It would pay to have it built to competition spec including a solid spacer. Will then be good
for 250bhp.
Cheers MATT

A solid spacer won't stop the planet gears from self-destructing!
