Nope, thank god. I'd hate to think what damage could be done if I was redlining it.

lol I'll let you have that one


Well I'm in, it's too dark to even try and look at it now and I got it dropped at the yard as they have a pit and all the tools I need - plus a van to run about in

I'm hoping it's just a driveshaft, but there is BOUND to be some gearbox damage from the noise it was making

Like I need an excuse for a new one
