Pulled this out of a tranny with banging in reverse and vibration under accel. It wasn't far from the shedding parts explosion phase. Check out the awesome HAZ, lol. most of the pins are welded to the planetaries, one sheared. Planetary teeth caught the sun gear, busting tips off, luckily the frag stayed in the diff and turned into paste instead of damaging more of the transmission. Not the only one I've seen, but the worst.

WOW! Holy shit! :lo5l: I'd say you took this apart just in time. I can't believe it's still together :eek4: Anymore time on that and you would have had a case full of twisted metal (and some lying on the ground that escaped through the giant new hole).

God damn! that's what happens if someone tow's it? :p
