[QUOTE="basspro302, post: 15948505, member: 171674"] Well out of everything I thought would break on my car I figured the 8.8 would hold up. I was getting on it on the highway shifted into 4th pretty hard then i heard a loud bang i immediately pushed in the clutch looking for the oil pressure light and a cloud of smoke but nothing happened pulled off the side. Everything looks fine engine running great all my gears in my transmission still work. Soi decide to drive it to my shop. The only noise is on decel sounds like a warped rotor scraping on a backing plate. Get it up on the hoist listen to the noise with the car in gear definitely in the rear axle. Pull the diff cover the gears and differential look great nothing abnormal or loose. So im not sure what broke in the rear. The noise on decel usually means a pinion issue. Long story short i have a used rear axle on the way 500$ so im gonna slam it in. Mods are p1sc and mach 500 clutch. The drive line is stock, stock 3.31 stock drive shaft. Ill report back if i get the time to rip it open and see what went wrong. Other wise if anyone in Michigan needs a donor rear axle i have one lol. [/QUOTE]
