First post, been lurking for a while, awesome community. Hopefully someone can help me out here.
Pulled apart my 8 3/4 Mopar after it began making a loud clicking. I found several pieces of metal in the bottom of the housing as well as a chunk wedged into the pinion gear. Seems to have done minimum damage to the gears, however I have no idea what these pieces originally were. I’ve attached images of what I found and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Did the previous owner accidentally leave something in there, or are these remnants of a part that I’m not familiar with and need to replace before reassembly? Thank you in advance.
