My driveshaft snapped at about the 660 ft mark. The driveshaft has been replaced, but do I need to have the transmission looked at? A visual check of the outer case shows no cracks or obvious damage.Any help on identifying potential issues would be helpful. Thanks.

Get in touch with KevinR, He'll have some input for Ya.

You might try posting this in the Perforamnce Forum. Those guys have seen it all!

Did the driveshaft break in the middle? Usually they take out the tailshaft bushing from whipping around under the car. If the shaft didn't have a lot of room to whip around and it spun kind of true, the trans should be ok. When it broke, how soon before you killed the engine?

After a visual inspection of the transmission and a check of the tail housing bushing as Ray suggested try the transmission. Low speed/idle part throttle first then then increase load and power. I have had and have seen the loss of a drive shaft with no damage to the trans. Other didn't turn out so well. Let us know.

blew out my d-shaft at the 1000' mark last year.broke the trans at the bellhousing area on the pass side .look closely also my converter ballooned.with it seated in all the way in the replacement trans the converter just hits the pads on the flywheel.

check for proper pinion angle

I hadn't thought about the converter to be honest. may as well do it right and pull the trans out and check it and the converter - especially since we still have snow on the ground now. Thanks for the feedback.
