Yes broke a tooth off of the pinion gear. A friend of mine that's a little more knowledgeable said when I started spinning the tires and I let off it made the abrupt stopping motion and of course opinion gear took the brunt of it. Made sense to me. And yes I sheared the teeth off of third gear and the third gear cluster. I'm using the standard half inch thick aluminum rear diff cover. But I've taken 3/16 or quarter inch steel plate and made a cage to go around the back part of the transmission and used longer bolts to mount it to the sides of the transmission. It's still in the car right now but you can kind of just imagine what it looks like. I'll see if I can find a picture of it.
