finally destroyed rear end in my truck

lots of slop. spinning the axles it sounds like playing cards in the spokes of a bicycle wheel. catches here and there. pics of carnage possibly if i feel like taking it apart before trashing it. anyone have a 8.5 outta a zq8/extreme?

that is all.

i find it amusing that i finally destroyed the rear axle. hahaha. now all thats left in the drivetrain is for my driveshaft to snap.:mamoru:

I know someone with an 8.8 out of a mustang for like 180. well I dont know the person, but I was given the guys number. it will be a while before I need a rear end so ill pass it along…

its disc with 3.08 and posi trac

I worked as a Quality Rep for AAM. They supplied the axle for the S10s. Sounds to me like you snapped an axle shaft. Not a real hard thing to repair and you shouldn’t have any trouble finding a replacement shaft as the 8.5 was standard on all full size GM pickups, and was used on the S10 Extremes.

lol, you slow84ta’ed it.

you shattered a spider gear. common problem. did that too my s10 when i had it

IIRC Ford 8.8’s out of an exploder are just about the same width and 100000X stronger than the Gm 7.625

GM rear ends :tdown:

Choko blew mine up at the track

I smoked mine in a 2.2L S-10 with Nazzzz when I was in H/S hahahah
