Catastrophic failure of Rear diff and repair DIY

[wsmeyer]

That's not an inspection hole!?!?

Yes, I was joking. Sorry, I needed a laugh after the week I had.

As soon as I opened the door and was hit with that rancid smell of used diff oil I knew what the problem was.

I did get a used diff and swapped it out. I'll update the thread with repair

Been working on cars,trucks,bikes,and planes almost all my life, that smell has to be one of the worst smells in the industry. Glad you got it sorted.
