screamin chicken

Ok I was runing my RS 18SS and I hit a reflector in the road and the car went over and over about 8 times, it cause my exhaust to come loose from the motor I fixed that cranked it up and the rear wheels are not pulling.I check the shaft and it still connected, I can turn the CB and the front respond but the rear do not.

Check your transmission. more then likely you lost RWD because the connection that comes from the back of the transmission came loose. OR check the rear differental connection that goes TO the transmission.

My first guess is. is that there is a little screw that takes the " L shaped rench " (alen is it?) that came loose

screamin chicken, the best thing to do in any situation is work down the line, so the clutch bell turns, does the spur gear turn, if so, when the spur gear turn, does the output shaft on the transmission turn, if so, continue on down the line and figure out which part stopped working, this works 99% of the time if you just do it

thanks for the illustration iexion that helps, and also the spur moves, the gears move and thats it.Now when you turn the rear wheels the wheels move and the shaft with the brake disc moves also. So i am assuming the set screw on this shaft has come loose.
