Sorry, I'm a newbie IRS guy and not sure which one is the welded nut :bash:
Could someone please post (if possible) a pic of where this welded nut is? I'm starting to really miss my SRA
Thanks guys!
I don't think that this is a real huge problem but I had it as well. What happened in my case was the rear diff mount bolt that attaches the rear diff support to the subframe came loose. Once this bolt comes loose, the small factory weld on the nut does not stand a chance. Below is a pic.
Inside that opening where you see the shank of the bolt is where the rear diff support is bolted to the subframe.
If you have someone in the car loading the drivetrain both forward and rearward with the service brake on, you should be able to peek under the car and see the differential housing moving as it's being loaded.
Hope that helps.
