ahhhhhhhhh........
well i guess it was only a matter of time![8~2]
i'm taking the wheel off tomorrow (sunday) cos i've been at work all day, ummm.... i do believe it to be a snapped left axel. however it did get side ways off the line , dropped the clutch at about 4500rpm , the back end moved to the right , hit close to redline and then bang[xx(]!!, i immediately thought it was the diff, i still had drive tho, when i accelerated it pulled to the left. i got it home and jacked it up and i can spin the left wheel independently (i have a welded diff) [:-(]not good!
i'm going to the wreckers (upullit) to find a mk1 left axel (if it works out to be that)
if its good i'll post some pix
