That's the worst damage i've seen in 5 yrs. on a front housing. I got just a 2.5" x 4.5" chunk off the end with the crack along the side and chewed up the gears.
Were you using a collar by chance

see, wasnt that fun?! yay! seriously, that was some pretty good damage. i only had one chunk come out of mine, but it did split on the top and bottom. But, you got the full all around chunk to come out! very nice |

Troy , thanks for the tips, we did get the old one out and the new one in without having to remove the LCA's. Was a bit fiddly, but, "Do-able" Thanks Mate.. |

Yep when we did jerbachers we didn't have to drop the lower control arms either, just takes a little wiggle room, and of course half a day! |
