correct!for those unfamiliar with spiders. each axle has splines on the shaft. two of the spiders will have corresponding grooves cut into them.........the spiders slide onto the axle ends. spiders come as a set of four.

I am going to hedge my bets and say a Cavalier rear end instead. Possibly a red Cavalier.

Dear Mr.Fredski,

In my opinion it is the Differential Drive for automobile vehicle and the pinion and gear is of bevel gear type.

One tooth is broken in the bevel pinion.

Been there, done that! Always in the search for more power...without increasing capabilities of drive lines!

What kind of forces were put on these gears to do this much damage?

Spiders gears don't do anything when you're going straight down the highway.

It would take a boat load of torque to strip these gears out just by popping the clutch on launch.

I've broken transmission gears speed shifting, but never a rear end on take off.

Something else breaks and falls into the works? C-clip maybe, or an improperly installed unit.

I would say around 350 to 500 hp and a hard clutch with a 5,000rpm hammer drop. LOL

Why do you keep asking when you already know the answer?

Why not indeed. Unless it's a homework problem or came from a troll who changed his name. In this case a better question might have been "What did I do wrong here?"
