Well It finally happened, Since I have built this car I have gone through a bottom end, 3 clutches, 3 gearboxes & now Finally a diff I have never seen the worm drive break teeth before (if thats what you call it) but I have destroyed 3 & a 1/2 teeth on mine, the crown wheel is only slightly damaged but that will have to be replaced now also.. Ive only had my car back on the road a week if that & was driving like a nana back from the supermarket when all of a sudden tap, tap, knock, CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
