Diff doesn't go out without a bang and a cracked trans case with fluid everywhere.


Woo hoo...

I disagree.

The speedometer (VSS) would not go up if the clutch was not linking the engine to the transmission.


I would most likely surmise a broken axle shaft.

Worst case scenario even broken spider gears but that's more unlikely.
You can break the spider gears without catastrophic transmission failure.
