That sucks. Wheel hop is a part killer. Did the end links break or the plate that they mount to?

What driver side axle did you go with? Have part number?

I was running the honeycombs , with the yokohama sdrives , Just dumped the clutch in the water box and bounced off redline a few times let the ebrake go and caught traction and hopped the wheels and they both blew apart . I tried getting out of it at the first sign of hop but hey those axels have 130k on them so it's cool .

Brian , O'Reillys Master Pro Select HO-8042 was on the drivers side and did not work , I just purchased a new OEM for $150 from my local stealership it'll be here tomorrow . 8043 is still on my passenger side . Are they the same length or does passenger very from driver ??

I can answer that. I bought them. But perhaps he has another.

Looking at the dash in that one pic, why do our CL's have 4 LED door indicators if we only have 2 doors? lol

Put a defouler on, and that'll get rid of the light.
