[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 494989, member: 483"] He's not sure how long its been broken. And there are some pretty obvious red flags recognized by some pretty reputable people with lots of experience. If it were me I would want to address those as best possible to avoid having to rebuild another trans in the future But he is his own man and I'm sure he'll post up what he does with any results in the future. Just out of curiosity, when you broke your front shaft, was there anything at all left of the shaft still attached to the t-case? Or did the joint break and everything came off? And to be clear, your advice is to leave all as is, fix the trans and ride? For what its worth, I absolutely think his driveshaft could have caused it. But I know the way my drive train is mounted, if that happened, my trans would be fine. Unless the driveshaft physically knocked a hole in the case, both my shafts could fly alla round, get stuck on whatever, and the only thing that could break would be more of the driveshafts or the t-case. There's no way possible that the drive train could torque and cause a cracked tail housing like that. [/QUOTE]
