I hate to say this, but it sounds like you blew out the rear end. I had this happen on my 69 Firebird, I sheared off all the bolts that held the ring gear on. ( Drag! 3 in the morning, coming back from Woodward, in the middle ofBFE!)It might be the spider gears or a broken retaining pin, but either way, you will have to pull the cover.

So far myfriend mechanic checked up on it and we went under the car. He said he couldn't see the driveshaft moving, so he said it is the transmission. I don't believe my tranny already blew! I'm taking it to Ford to see what the hell happend to it 2maro

The car has to be moving in order for the driveshaft to move or did you have the rearend off the ground and put it in gear?

Guys It was the driveshaft(pshoooo). I was scared for a little, it was broken right in the middle of that stupid driveshaft(right where the to joints meet it looks like a rubber boot). I asked what you guys they said we rather you get a 1 piece than you wasting your time on a stock one. So i got the steel 3" 600hp DS driveshaft and i also got the CHE Axle brace.Their going to fix it friday, ill tell you guys how much better with the brace and the DS, thanx alot for your help guys.

ya odds are it isn't your driveshaft because i have done plenty of 40mph rolls with 400rwhp and driveshaft has held up fine. most likely they didn't put gears in correctly.
