Yep thats the worst of it. Just broke that axle as far as i can tell. I will have to see the carrier bearings and gears to see if anything got thrown through there or if the posi got cooked when it broke.
If the gears and carrier look good, its going to get moser 30 spline axles to GN width and I'll cut 4" out of this housing and get a proper set of 15x10's on the rear. Probably go with c clip eliminator 9" ends. I didnt spit the tire out since it had disk brakes and the caliper bracket kept everything in (like i always thought and said it would) but when its apart and needs ends anyways i'll tackle it.
If the gears and bearings or posi are trashed, it's getting a 9". New gears, carrier, axles, install kit and all the other needed upgrade parts are like $1000 and I can scrounge up a 9" for not much more than that.
This happened on the 2nd pass of the day. 1st pass was a 11.79 and it spun a bit. Took a psi out of the tires, launched, shifted to 2nd, hit rev limit, made sure i didnt miss a gear, let clutch out again, didnt move. Luckily all the oil stayed inside the diff so the track was happy.
I searched locally for 3hrs for a zr2 being parted out or something but nobody got back to me. No luck. Threw it on the trailer and went home.
