Disaster bummer. Exposed everything and found the differential case broke off at the bolt. (of course this is after foolishly buying new transmission mounts). My nephew used to be an instructor and Wyotech and said it would be hard but thinks he can weld it, and add a metal plate for more reinforcement. If we do it I'm going to have him reinforce the other side at the same time. I'm going to do some more research to see if this has ever happened to anyone else before. I googled '986 differentials' and nothing but a 5speed came up. Any advice would be well received.
