Re: A real mans DSM :D, Introducing, the Starion

Well, as some of you know, probably only like 2 people really, my car was having a CRAZY rear end problem that felt like sick wheel hop, or like death was coming. So I finally got under there to inspect and do a fluid change and what did I find?

1.) Torn inner CV boot
2.) One of the 2 mounts holding the diff, was no longer holding the diff.

The diff on these is mounted to the subframe by two rubber mounts with one bolt from each going into a tab on the top of the diff, well one of the mounts bolts snapped. So the diff was just kinda hanging.

Well, long story short, she has new CV boots on the drivers side, and a new shiney bolt holding the diff back on, and now shes a tire burning fuel cutting monster again.

Now its time for a maff to see if that cures what ails it.
