So in the other thread, yes i did blow up a trak lok. I went to pull the driveshaft out and it came almost all the way and got stuck! 3 hours later with a 3 pound hammer and it was out. This is a toploaded 4 speed trans, what happened? did a bearing go in the tailshaft?  I swear to god too, I just swapped this entire drivetrain over, I had the driveshaft out and it was fine! this happened from maybe 50 miles of driving. The trak lok blew up literally 2 blocks from my house less than 1/4 mile distance away if that makes a difference.

| Is there even a bearing in the tailshaft? or is there just the yoke bushing? |
