I Knew the day was coming

i always knew the day was coming when my rear decides to quit. other night driveing home at about 1:30am and no one was around. so why not punch it. after going to third gear start getting bad vibrations didnt know what it was. next day decided to look under my diff cover and see whats going on. 2 pretty nice chunks were torn out of the pinion gear. (now i got a little winter project)

I'd just look for a low mileage replacement. How many miles did that one go before she failed?
