Thats exactly how you drive an evo...
Drive it hard, something breaks, upgrade broken part and drive it HARDER!

Respect for doing the job yourself.

What caused this? Track wear and tear?

I would send in the transmission too if I were you....I did and there was some damage to the input and output shafts.

I took my t-case apart all the way when I blew mine....here is the carnage...so you can have an idea what yours looks like inside.

I have to disagree. There's a big difference between driving hard and abusing the machine to the point of blowing the front diff. The OP may want to edit his FS ad.
