helga's dana 44, found the problem,
 
so i decide to take the diff cover off and check it out, so i finally crack it open, and the fluid start coming out, the color is a metallica silver, and on the side is this yellow gold fluid. so i finally drain her look inside and checking out the little bits of metal on the bottom, took out a few that where good size. so you know the gear in the middle theres like for little ones, i think there spider gears. well all of them are completely gone, they are all shaved down and with little bit still stick out, nice or what. well thought i'd share my story, now to open up the corp 14 to see what else i broke. lol

oh, do you guys know what might of caused this?

id have to agree, 40 is, like ive said before, 5 inches over max recomended size for a Dana 44, they just aint built for that big of a tire....
