I thought it would be interesting to see what failed... for those of you with multiple failures, vote with what happened on your first failure, as the second one might have been 'helped' by a poor dealer installation of the first replacement.

I need another mod or admin to add the option... I can't since I'm not a mod in UTH... Good suggestion, though. I figured that if you had no problem you could hit 'view results' but this way we can track OK rearends, too. Mod? Admin? help.

Hmm.... certainly don't see a pattern. Can anyone who voted that they didn't know describe their failure so we can try to figure it out? And everyone else... vote! There's a heck of allot more views than votes.

I don't know what was wrong with mine other than it made a lot of noise under a light load when increasing speed. I drove the car with the sound getting worse for 2-3000 miles before it was replaced. The car had and still has had zero high rpm starts.

ttt.... Vote if you haven't voted yet. If we get some more votes, we can see a trend.

Ok, I can only vote once - but I need three votes. The first vote was counted for, "axle".

2nd vote, "Differential AND Housing"
3rd vote, "Axle" (the other one)
