Well got the diff fixed and was able to get a full pack on the truck. Changed to a new pack and started running and that's when everything went wrong. Heard a load snapping noise and shut it down right away. Damage was a chewed steel spur, chewed RCM pinion. So I thought no big deal, just change them out. Went to pull off the pinion and the motor shaft came with it.
Snapped the shaft right off. Also the end bell (?) came off as well. Only good thing is the diffs are fine.
Guess it is going to be a while before this is running again until I get the Medusa either repaired or refunded.
