Upper plate looks broken too. No biggie though, why would you say it's going to sit for a long time?

Don't worry, take your time & take it appart. This is the fun part.

Oh man way to suck at driving

I'd def. reccomend going somewhere that's wide open to avoid stuff like that.
Personally I have a parking garage right around the corner that is empty at night. I just take it up there on the roof and fine tune the engine on the pavement.
Just be ready to go through some tires is you're driving a lot on the pavement.

Don't give up yet buddy.

the same thing happend to me with my sv, but it wasnt nearly as bad. what you do is take the front assembly off. then you should have enough room to hammer it out. my trucks rear wheal drive until i can get new shafts and it runs great.
