Haha, yea, the exhaust is fine, sounds awesome btw 
I think what happend is one of the out clips on the ujoint failed and the end cap went flying off so the driveshaft started flailing around putting a ton of torque on the transfer case adapter shearing it off. The driveshaft is still attached to the rear so that probably saved my driveshaft since it never hit anything.
It looks like the part is only $50 on ebay, so hopefully im just out that and some fluid and im good. How much fluid do I need, its 11 quarts dry, right?

I have the adapter on order, should be here friday, also got the seals from a dealership for $20.
My driveshaft is pretty mauled though, have a look here, https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...50#post4393550
I think im in the market for a new one
The transfer case appears to be fine as well as the output shaft. The guy at the dealership wasnt surprised when I told him the story, said he had seen a few of these.

Put in on the T case first. if you drop the cross member on the trans you can tilt it down to get to the top bolts. its really not that hard. word to the wise is make sure you have a gear wrench. Makes the install much easier.
