Have to agree with Javed on this one. It happened on my street URQ. Pin broke
twice. Finally pulled/dropped the motor and tranny as a unit, separated them
only to find an oil pan bolt that would move around on rough roads and take
out the pin.
Absolutely the biggest PITA job for minor issue I have ever encountered.
