So my rear end has been popping when making slow sharp turns and I opened it up today and found this.... how bad is it? can I drive on this thing for a while if I'm nice to it? what would cause this to happen?
I think you did to many burnouts, now your seeing the results of them. I think you need a new posi or try to find the parts to rebuild the inside of your torsen.

I'm pretty sure they are but most shops charge alot to rebuild them, in the pics it looks like you said chunks from the worm gear. If you look at the sticky above for the Torsen Diff., click on the links and it will show you the insides of the Torsen Diff. and all the gears inside it. Most likely it would be cheaper to buy another LSD. I looked online before for shops that rebuild Torsen Diff. and they were pretty high on their prices. I'm waiting to redue mine with some 3.73's , but mine is due to the pinion nut backing out, because the guy that put mine in the last time reused the same nut (Dumb @ss), so it back out and after almost 3 years now it howling pretty bad now. So I just got some new GM Motive 3.73's pinion and gears to replace the 3.42's. Also a rebuild kit with new bearings,seals, pinion nut, crush sleeve and a T/A cover to go back in. I'm waiting for a mechanic to get so free time to put them in. But your situation is worse than mine. Have you cleaned the case all out and put it back together to see if it still works?

I know were your coming from there, been there and done that too.... no I haven't put it back together yet cause I'm watching one on ebay but it was working fine before just popping thats all... still locked and everything. Thats what I'm hoping for tho just to get me buy until I can fix it right.
Good luck.I bought one of someone on LS1tech and they screwed me (never sent it) and now I'm in the paypal claims and had to file an internet crime report. Stupid me, always go through EBAY or paypal won't do ****.
