I was driving home from work today and had just pulled onto the freeway when BOOM something in my front end blew up. I pulled it off of the freeway and parked it and called a friend to see if he could look at it and called somebody else to have it towed to his house.
The tow truck got there and the front wheels wont even spin now so he had to drag it on to the flatbed with the winch.
I have no idea what happened but I am thinking broken axel, blown ring and pinion, broken wheel bearing, or my favorite all of the above.
Well here is the diagnosis: Cracked ring and pinion, shreaded spider gears, bent axel, fried both bearings. Man did I FFFF it up, when I pulled the diff cover off it sounded like coins dropping into the tray at the casino (tink tink tink tink tink)
Anyway now I need the whole thing, complete front end D30 for a 95 xj. can anyone help me out, it is my daily driver so I would like to have it done this weekend.
