Front diff?I don’t know how he’s doing it but dad blew up the guts in this 40 spline RD99CE ARB. possible/probable crash locking but when it actually broke was at a desert race where the locker wasn’t even being used. Ruined the case with big sharp chunks of metal rolling around in there. Also the Mega hi pinion from the same diff.
