Parts broken by excess power are really cool , although fixing them can be very hard on the wallet. That "supercharged toploader tranny" will find the weak points in the drivetrain very easily.

There is a good chance that your housing pinion retainer was damaged when the spring perches gave out and the pinion angle became all whack. Hopefully you are planning on beefing up your entire drivetrain to help prevent future damage.
