| Yeah SHane messaged me today, said its the output shaft section of the gearbox.. so sounds like he will need a new box or at least the rear section of it. Wonder if it had anything to do with them pulling it all apart when installing the Quick shift? |

| That price was from Muzzy though, and he does get quite decent prices. Let us know how you go though. Horrible news that his gearbox is now gone |

Thats the bad thing if you have axle tramp you should lift off .axle tramp is the worst thing that can happen to a driveline. Shane if there is anything that I/we can help let us know mate. |

| Shane is offline until sunday or later... But said it looks like it may have just busted the tailshaft which pulled the tailshaft from the rear of the box and threw oil everywhere.. Fingers crossed for him that its an easy fix. |

| Just got off the PHONE to Shane Good News... It BUsted the tailshaft in a similar manner that the Sexpo Soarer busted his! Exactly what i just posted above... Broke the front section so the yoke and spline got thrown out of the rear of the box and spewed oil everywhere ALl is well, so he just is in need of a new tailshaft! His car is at NIall;s workshop where they will source up another of even get one custom built SHane asked me to post on his behalf. |

| Funny thing with axle tramp is I use to get it with street tyres trying to run high 1.8-1.9 60 footers, now with MT drag radials, never had any kind of axle tramp occur. I'm sure daniel has had a similar experience. |

| Hey fellas back online (damn ISP) Thanks Daniel for posting for me So the good news is i only twisted the Tailshaft, Thats the only damage i can see...I still have to get the car towed to my Mecahnic Niall on Monday morning so he can go over it and can confirm thats the only damage. This all happened on the start line so my very 1st intial thought was yeah its axle tramp so i stayed on it for a split second, but then realised its much worse than that so 2nd thought was i blew the diff. So at that point i was just rolling and came to stop. I did try and get it moving again but was moving no where. After jacking the car up i can see why i thought it was axle tramping, its because the yoke came out of the output shaft and was smashing against my exhaust and giving my car a tiny hop when moving. At the same time that noise sounds like a blown diff. (as ive had a couple blown diffs in my car before) So yeah i did a fair bit of specualting but finally found the twist in the tailshaft. Heres a couple pictures. 1st one is of the output shaft of the gearbox (all looks good) 2nd one shows the yoke of the tail shaft rested on my exhaust (which cause all the noise etc) 3rd shows the Twist i got in the tailshaft which is like 5-10cm away from the Uni Joint. (i should have more photos of the tailshaft today)
So yeah im looking to get the Tailshaft fixed ASAP and giving WSID another crack. |

Thats a few more pics of the damage. It shortened the shaft by 10cm or more which caused the yoke to come of the output shaft of the gearbox. My mate from work helped me take the tailshaft out today and his been involved in Drag Racing for most of his adult life and said he had seen nothing like that before. Obvisouly his seen broken shafts before but nothing along the lines of mine. |

| Thats off the Hizzle dude!!!!! SHould be an easy fix too mate Although you might wanna make sure you check the oil level once its all back together, and top it up with some Smurf Pi$$ |
