Loud clanging noise and hard turning diffs

[Craig G.]

What's up forum, couple issues here i'm looking for advice on. I have one car making a huge clanging noise in the clutch area and another with a differential that is pretty hard to turn. Below are links to the videos showing the issues. Thanks everybody!

Hey Craig
Get out you tools and start stripping down your toys?? best way to find out what's going down???

No clue on the diffs but the clutch bell bearing might have play in it and that might be what's causing the clanging

Trigger happy check your brakes try disconnecting the lever on the brake cam? the other car mmmmmm you said the clutch was ok? is the spring on the exhaust connected right?

I would remove the spur gear to see if the pinion moves freely if it doesn't then it's the clutch or bearings if it moves freely then it's your transmission I'll do that before anything.
