Was it the TT?

Was it the TT?

I was wondering the same thing, TT bolt backs way out and destroys carrier bearing cap?

On second thought, it would wipe the other bearing cap if that happened, unless a ring gear bolt backed out.

All of the bolts are there on TT they did not back out. I took them out and put lock tight on them before the install.Also all the bolts are on the ring gear, i don't know what happened. If you look at the pics below a bolt broke off inside the housing.

How many times have those bearing cap bolts been reused?? Looks like one of those bolts gave way. If they have been taken out and reused a few times they could have been stretched.

 

[chris23]

This is the second time its been apart.

 

[Lvcoyote]

I wouldn't reuse those bearing cap bolts again, get four new ones if your going to rebuild it again.
