    I bet if anyting it snapped the ears off of the pinion yoke when it let go at the worst . I dont see it cuasing so much damage it would render the truck inoperable . But you never know.

    To the OP if somebody hasnt helped you get your rig going by or taken a look to really see whats going on let me know im out that way next week and can take a peek at it. Those old trucks are my favourite i own 2 of that generation . Let me know

    Assuming your vehicle is 4 wheel drive and it is tour rear drive shaft which failed, could you remove the drive shaft and put it in 4 wheel drive. Your truck will be front wheel drive. I had to resort to that one time.

    Only if transmission end is a u-joint style - if its a yoke you will be leaking tranny fluid.
