this will make you sick
Driving my truck in 4 wheel drive it was vibrating and then a loud bang, climbed under and saw my front driveline sitting in the skid plate. Apparently when the tranny guy had the tranny out he forgot to tourque down the flange bolts, all 4 were laying in the pan and the rear driveline only had 2 loose ones left.

That stinks, is it as simple enough to put it all back together or did some damage occur?

And that's why, if at all possible, I won't let anyone work on my vehicles.

That really blows. I, like many others in here, try to do as much work on my trucks as I can to eliminate this.
I would be bringing it back to whoever "fixed" it, and giving them a piece of my mind!
