I'll probably just go ahead and throw some type of upgraded axels in. Going to look around some tonight.

Sorry. Everyone was spelling it incorrectly and I couldn't take it any more. I'm glad you laughed. You could probably use a laugh right now!



Don't feel too bad. Once I spent a bunch of money hot rodding a motorcycle engine. Bigger valves, custom cams, ported/polished heads and port matched intake manifolds, bored out the cylinders, raised the compression, bigger carbs, the whole 9 yards. I reassembled the motor and grenaded that thing 8 miles into it. I incorrectly installed the cam chain tensioner and BOOM at 70mph. She gone. The cam chain let go and bent 4 brand new custom valves. I had to take it all the way down and rebuild. I got it all redone and beat the **** out of it for 5-6 years then sold it still running like a beast.

Some pictures of the carnage. It was the drivers side one that went. Have ran gallons and gallons of fluid through to hopefully get most all the metal shavings out.
