Angry Broken Driveshaft

Wanna play a game ? Guess what I broke! Well i was on my way to a meeting for a job and my truck started making the noise that it did the last time I broke my pinion gear (yes i broke it again and just replaced it last week in fact on Saturday) well i kept driving there was no way was going to miss this meeting. anyway when I left I locked in my hubs but forgot to engage my 4 wheel drive so it was worse than it was when i got there, so i finally pulled over to check it out my gf watched underneath whil i rolled forward and then i watched it thought it was the T-case so i continued driving and BAM snaped the nuckle from the T-case in half. I was relieved it wasn't the pinion gear again or the T-case. and while i was driving the RPMs were acting wierd liek the tranny was slipping and my friend told me that since i havea Borg Warner tranny and t-case that they probably share fluid so i put more tranny fluid in. But found out later the speed sensor was barely connected the bolt holding it on wasn't no longer there so theres my shifting problem lol. but afterwards my truck shuttered really bad but now i'm thingint its because of the stuff thats still attached to the truck still, like the other half of my drivesahft since it splined in the middle, and the rest of the nuckle that is attached to the t-case. So what do u guys think? Also i was really really low on t-case oil. So do u think the vibrations are from the other half of the driveshaft spinnign around? I would like to read some of your ideas.. Man i have way too much trouble with this truck. But I love it!
