Ok.. I opened up the rear diff and I find this massive (as far as loose parts in the bottom of the diff are concerned)piece of mangled metal. Well the metal turns out to be the "Axle drive gear thrust pad" as stated in the shop manual. I would assume that this pad keeps the ring gear from deforming under extreme tourq situations. The question is just haw important are these pads and where can I get another. Thanks.
