Major rear-end clunking after gear change

Wow you got screwed.

I would say that they didn't crush the crush sleeve and the pinion is dancing around like a little ballet dancer. Just a guess though. I would yank it out immediately if not sooner and get that thing fixed, before you are out a gear. That sucks to hear. Hope it works out for you.

Thanks for the responses, guys.

Man, you can do research, ask around, and try to verify the quality of shops, and you still wind up with crappy work. To top it off, I had a bunch of suspension upgrades that wound up lowering the car too much.

But that's a topic for another thread, which I'll start now...
