I found a issue with my shifting on the vette since monday. Saturday night we tossed to car on the lift and fixed a diff seal that was leaking. Monday i picked the car up to find an issue with the shifting. Had a clunking, rattling, squealing. After some driving around and beating on it. My best friend and kyle thought it might be the clutch. So out everything came and heres what we found.

I drove around and beat the hell out of the car in frustration for 2 days on a driveshaft that was not connected. I destroyed the rubber coupler on the front end and started my job on the rear coupler. So tomorrow I'm going to make some aluminum couplers and fix the car and finally get to put a full summer on the car.

figured everyone would like to see some destruction!

Thats interesting to see
You're lucky thing it didn't cause anymore damage!
I think your rear sub frame has spent more time out of the car than it has in it
Hope it stays together for the season
