Caboobaroo Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Wow, that's a new one. I've also seen the bolts on the crown back out of the carrier and get chewed up inside the rear diff on a '05 Legacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 The lock nut on the end of the pinion shaft backed off? Could have a seized thrust bearing that spun it off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
