Wow, that's messed up. I jacked up my old car on the pumpkin all the time and it was never a problem. Are S2k diff housings made of styrofoam?

Are you sure you jacked up on the diff? The diff housing is cast metal - probably some sort of aluminum alloy, you'd need to smack it something hard to put an indent into it.

There is a pad on the bottom for jacking from that point. Weird.
