Thanks for posting those pics for me JM 35 Sedan.
Looks like I'll end up with a rebuilt rear axle. New ring and pinion and bearings.
Are there any good reference books on the setting of R/P, preload on the pinion,mesh tolerance specs,torque specs?
I've never done one but would like to learn how.
With that completed all I'd have to is figure a good fix/replace/repair on the drive shaft.
Any more ideas out there?
