Deceased, But not forgotton
nothing like a loose ring gear bolt to make your day--bad.FWIW, Even with a mid 12's Abody car we were chasing the weak links way back. Axle splines and ring/pinions were among them. As you add strength in one area another area takes the brunt and fatigue. Over time and use the weak will show up.
