Default Broken diff at Sebring, anyone got one?

Busted the diff during the last session this afternoon, looking for something to make it thru the rest of the weekend. If you got anything email me at kblankenship@comcast.net . I hope somebody has something, I would hate to have to load up and go home.Almost forgot, its for a C5.

Thanks

I have a 3.90 ready to go and my 3.42 out of my car. Let me know if this could help at all.

I sent him info for revxtreme in Brandon, but being way afterhours, it's going to be tough finding something. Good luck Kenny

Arrghh!

This happened to me in reverse last weekend at an SCCA National Race. Here is the full story of how I got back on track, although it probably won't help you....
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/sout...onal-race.html

I fixed the torque tube and then my Quaife diff went out. What diff are you using. I was trying to figure out if one could take out the other. I could not see how it could. Any ideas on why both would fail on our two cars at virtually the same time?

Looks like the torque tube bushing came apart and busted the tube when it did.
