Found out that the front diff mount for the two rear bolts is a weak link. Had my yoke at the diff binding up on the frame after the weak plate started tearing out of the frame.
I took a 3"x6"x1/4" piece of flat bar and made a new stronger plate.
heres a pic of factory plate after I got it back into shape, and a pic of the new mount that I welded in its place.

The 800's have a terrible design on this mount. If you own a 800 beware!
