I'm willing to bet that his diff is now more of a permanent locked! Not too many people would think of changing the diff fluid regardless of what they have done to it.

what a tool. i love that guy at the end. "what an @$$hole"

i think the diff would have been the least of his problems if that exhaust sucked up water IF he ever would've let off the gas.

There's no chance at all his exhaust would've sucked up water.

Stick a straw in a glass of water. Then blow it in and tell me how much water comes up the straw into your mouth.
