Reply to "NEW Mangusta Wheel by Group 4 Wheels"

For the new guys, a Mangusta skid plate is essential! I once repaired a Mangusta bellhousing and diff case for a CA member. The story was, the bellhousing snagged a manhole cover at speed and ripped the whole bottom out of the bellhousing including clutch & flywheel, and cracked the ZF diff case so bad, you could see gears inside by leaning over the fender. Someone tried to weld the scrap together poorly- the weld beads were an inch wide but had zero penetration.
I ground all the buttery welds off and redid the parts. The heat distorted the case and bellhousing into a potato chip which then required remachining. Not fun, not cheap- the owner abandoned the parts & found the last new caes available, to put the OEM gears in. I still have the diff case for sale.
