dumped the clutch a little too hard, dont know what broke

[Jake_427]

dumped the clitch at a pretty high RPM in first gear, car jerked a little bit and then i hear a loud bang. Car still moves under its own power a little bit, but screams and begs you to stop. look under the car and see the driveshaft isnt hanging, and dont know what to look at from here. Any advice is appreciated

Jack up the rear of the car. Put it on jack stands. Turn the rear end. Maybe you can diagnose from there. If you still can't tell if it's the diff or transmission that's exploded, disconnect the drive shaft. That should get you there. In some rare cases a clutch explosion can do strange things. Like being in shreds but still somehow tries to move the car. But that one is obvious.

Exactly. Easy way to start a home diagnosis
