driveshaft dropped out going 75, help!
long story short, i was on the highway and my ujoints snapped on my rear driveshaft causing my driveshaft to fly across the highway. The worse news, when the driveshaft hit the ground, the torque of it spinning twisted my transfer case and broke it all the way around on the tail housing. Not only did it break that, but it broke the end of my transmission all the way around just before it connects to the transfer case. Also it made a large crack down the center of the transfer case. Im not exactly sure of what to do but i dont have all the money in the world, looking for the cheapest option and best option at the same time. If anyone could give me some feedback, options, advice, anything; it would be greatly appreciated.
Holy **** !!!!!! After putting on a clean pair of underwear, I would look for junkyards near you (or even ebay) to see if anyone has a compatible donor truck, since you're gonna need trans, xfer case and driveshaft.
yeah thats a thousand dollar problem....5-600 for used trans....3-400 for used t-case.....and a driveshaft from your local junkyard should be under a hundres. maybe try posting an ad on Craigslist, who knows maybe you'll struck gold and someone will have all 3 laayin around
anyone else have any ideas? do i have to get a whole tranny or can i replace just that back part that bolts on? the tranny broke just before it connects to the transfer case.. i already checked my tranny it seems to run fine.
just get a new tailshaft and driveshaft and slap some jb weld into the cracks and you'll be fine (for a little while anyway).
where are you located? you can try http://www.mintonmotorsinc.com/index.html for replacement parts. you'll have to call them for prices but they should have what you need.
