    Catastrophic brake failure

    Hey folks, can anyone shed some light on this? It's part of a conversation I'm having with a member and it occurs to me that the broader community might have some insights into just exactly what happened.

    An unusual gear box failure?

    A story from facebook of a beautifully restored early 2005 with gear damage I have not seen posted here before. @warp9.9 may be able to provide a cause/analysis. Makes me feel glad I only had the shattered teeth of one 4th gear in my sump and no grindings!
