Default Found the noise in the rear of my Camaro

Once in a while I would hear some noise from the rear of my Camaro. So last night I found an unpleasant surprise while looking under my car for the noise. I saw some bumps in the rear diff cover pushing outward and paint missing which is never a good sign. I took the cover off to find out 3 bolts were missing from the ring gear. The picture doesnt show it very well but the rear cover was tore up really bad inside. You can also see what 1 of the bolts looked like that was laying in the bottom.
I removed all the bolts and put red locktite on them. Then bought 3 more bolts to replace the missing ones. I also bought 75-140 weight fluid for the rear.
Luckily the ring and pinion gear are in excellent shape. I couldnt see any visible damage at all and the bearings seemed in good shape too. The car should be fine but it was a little scary to find this a week before my next Grattan road track event.
