found a vibration, coulda hurt

well ive had a vibration problem in the rear for a few weeks, so i finally check, oooo worn halfshaft u-joint, not good, so no biggie i went and got a new one and changed it out, but what came out wasnt just a worn set of needle bearings!!! the parts have 100,00km on them and lots of abuse from autox and dding the car. heres some pix!! enjoy. you can see on the end of the broken spyder there is wear marks as well.
