dude, you gotta weld that diff pin in! That’s 101 level. (Super common with Mazda fwd transmissions from the 90s)

In it’s defense it had 195k miles of pure abuse before letting fly...

Sounds about right.

This is an actual depiction of events, based on a true eyewitness testimony: 

22 year old - “Hey I have a car from the 90's with almost 200k miles on it. Let’s do clutch dumps and burnouts outside of mighty taco!”

Diff pin - ‘I must go, my people need me’

Ours had around 50k on it when we got it. I proceeded to auto-x it, put more power through it, neutral/reverse drop it, and just generally beat the hell out of it. 199,500 mi it finally decided it had had enough.

Can’t really be mad.
