There are a lot more people here with more knowledge than I have. What I have seen posted on a blown center diff: very low on fluid, or wrong weight diff fluid say if it required a center 500K and was running it very hard with a 200K. Then there is heat if hot out and rig got hot or running back to back no breaks not letting it cool down...there are post where it has exploded. Some like myself run the Arrma or HR metal center diff for this reason.

Others will chime me to add or correct something I posted other post are here by searching on this topic.

Bearing went, low on fluid. Over heated......loose some where. Something bent or flexed? Part failure.

nah boyz a rock got caught for sure look at the grind marks on the chassis

Yep! You got a rock between the chassis and doff housing. Notice then melty shredded black plastic piled up. That's like taking a grinder to the plastic diff housing. It cut a groove until the velocity exceeded what the ground down diff housing could take and pop!

I do not believe anything locked up. It looks like the housing ground down on a large piece of debris and mechanically failed.
