MFactory
No bueno!!
Ring gear bolts let go Bought from MFactory and torqued to their spec, with the required red loc-tite. At least the LSD unit seems undamaged. Now I need to find a low-mile donor diff, and swap the guts over (and maybe rebuild the LSD while it's out).

I need to see if MFactory will do anything about this. I have my doubts...
