uh oh... I broke something... need help

[5.0Chief]

Coming out of a car wash, i spun out in 1st. Tried 1st again, no luck, then i went into 2nd, and heard a very loud, very deep bang, like a sledgehammer hitting solid metal. Well, i got going, and i can still go through all of the gears fine, but i have a bad vibration over 40mph. The whole car shakes. Please let me know everything i could have broke before i go looking, to make sure i find what i broke. I am guessing some kind of engine or tranny mount?

Thanks,
Chris

sounds like you busted 1st gear inside the tranny. time for a rebuild...

can it still be a problem inside the tranny, if i can get in it and shift through all 5 gears with no problem? I don't know much about them.

check the driveshaft it causes, if broke, the whole car to shake.

U-joints?

try quick stuff like wiggle the driveshaft to see if theres any play (u joints) if thats not it then atleast u have that off ur list b4 u drop your tranny. everyone's got good suggestions.

If you have a bunch of work on the engine and a stock driveshaft, driveshafts what i would check first. A buddy of mine had a blown 93 5.0 and he had that problem at around 40mph with a tweaked driveshaft...
