> YIKES!!!! Dude! Put your truck in neutral with the parking brake on, and
block the wheels. Crawl under your truck RIGHT NOW, grab your drive shaft
and yank on it. If you can move it at all (other than smoothe rortation)
install new U joints, now rather than later. If you MUST drive, do so
gingerly. I had the front ujoint on the rear driveshaft let go on the
highway a few years back, and it pole-vaulted my Jeep - into the air and set
it on it's nose. It was blind luck that all I broke was parts and not me...
It 100% mangles everything, believe me....

First day I had my Dak, I put a driveshaft loop in, for that exact reason.
