Truck came home on a flat bed, I got questions

I have had a vibration starting off in 1st gear for the last week, yesterday after getting the truck to duplicate it a few times I figured it was a motor mount, or my Nelson was hitting the floor or skidplate bracket, anyway last night I went out for a few and when coming off of a stop sign and going into 2nd somethin let go, Im not sure if its a transfer case or a shaft, any tips as to what to look for or what could be the problem would be great, the truck is gonna go back to my DTT guy so he can work some more magic on it, thanks in advance. By the way it has no gears, no park, and 4wd does nothin.

Ive had a input shaft do that! Dumped the clutch any? Sounds almost like a clutch disc or pres plate flying apart. I would start there. Its gotta come out if its somthing else anyway. If you dont find damage there check the rear!

Sounds like you just lost a shaft if you don't have any gears what so ever.

I bet it is your output shaft, if park dosent work either. Pull the t/case and most likley the end of the output shaft will be in the t/case input. at least thats how it was on mine. save your self some down time and get all 3 billit shafts and a drum. good luck.
