yup, I think its the driveshaft. Heard a snap, then a rattling like something was spining against something else. On Stock power, thats how badass I am. Anyone guestimate how much to replace?

1.6 or 1.8? Sure it wasnt the diff?

I dont think it was the diff, I dont see any damage to it? This is my first RWD, so this is me assuming its the drivesshaft, it sounded like it was spinning loose.
also its a 1990 1.6 2dr vert

when your driveshaft falls off, you'll know its the driveshaft.
The car will first vibrate when accelerating, then when it releases it will make a sound like ultimate death as it spins and hits the PPF and other parts, then if it falls and releases, it will hit everything under the car and you wont be able to accelerate anymore.

I was turning onto my street, I heard a snap, the car stoped accelerating, and it made a horrible rattling noise, which made me think the DS was spinning loose against everything it could find, but there isnt anything hanging under the car, no oil or anything, and the diff doesnt look damaged from the outside.
