Most blown axles in one day


Recommended Posts

I'm Curious,

Who has grenaded the most:

1)axles

2)rear diff stubbs

 

in one day, on one rig????????????????????

 

For me:

#1) I've trashed both fronts and a rear, hillclimbing in my 87t wagon, then I ran out of axles and went home...

 

2)-None

 

 

Who holds this claim to subaru abuse/repair fame?

Anybody with a lincoln locker has to have beaten me, not to mention those with t-case mods :-\

in my 93 impreza, i broke the CV joint at the hub, inturn causing the cv joint rod fly into the lower control arm at 50 mph i had to replace the caliper, cv joint, lower control arm and brake line.....weak cv joints dont like 180 degree corners at full throttle...:rolleyes:

 

so much for a fun filled weekend racing some hill climbs...made a horrid noise too...made the hair on the back of my neck stand up :(

 

 

in worse news, a 93 subaru Legacy turbo 5mt, new tires = too much grip, not enough slip....complete roll, destroyed roof, driverside quarter panel and hood....i sure miss that car :(
