No, if you lose the CV joint on one side, the Quaife
won't (shouldn't) drive on the other side because it's
not a true LSD and doesn't work that way..(at least
that's what I've read)
I'm sorry to hear about your luck. I'd sip on some
eggnog and try not to think about it for now. When you
are feeling better about it, maybe pull the trans to
check the clutch. If it's the clutch it's not the end
of the world. If the clutch is fine, I can definetly
see why you'd consider parting it out. Don't make any
big decisions while the emotions are running high. :)
Relax and enjoy the holidays. :)
good luck
Ian
