Oh No!!!!

[want-a-fast-svx]

I was on my way home when on the turn to the road for my house the car just started grinding, and popping sounding like it was coming from the front diff...When in neutral and rolling slow you can barely hear it, but once you get the thing in drive and give it the slightest gas it sounds like it grenading..Most likely its the diff i would imagine...Correct me if im wrong but isnt this an appropriate time to swap over to the 5 spd???Or is this not that much of an chore/ expense...? i just dont want to buy a front diff and then have the tranny go next, cause i know its having problems too...The cars been fwd only for a while now, i guess it was only a matter of time before it blew...Well is a 5spd the way to go??Any and all help is greatly appreciated...Sorry about the coils, if you all still need me to send them let me know, i had/ have some personal stuff going on right now, well either way thanks in advance

Well that depends. A five-speed would be the way to go if you have the means and technical ability to install one.

But don't get ahead of yourself - I would have a shop check out your car for you first.

I would also have someone run a diagnosis on it and estimate the repair.

My plan was to go to a 5spd the instant something happened to the auto...that's about to become a reality for me over the winter.
