I got stuck and was putting it in drive and reverse repeatedly....after a while it puked trans fluid all over the ground-dont know where it came from.....I got it out with a tow truck and got it to the house, I washed the undercarriage and topped it off with fluid, its not leaking or anything, shifts fine but it just seems like its vibrating slightly or something. Also there is a sort of clankety-clank noise coming from the rear (u-joints?) and a hard clank from park to reverse, reverse to drive. All this started after I high centered in some clay mud last Sunday.

Check your u-joints.Make sure you park on level ground,block the tires so the truck cant move forward or back.Then put it in neutral and check the driveshaft front joint and rear joint.They should not wiggle around if you grasp the driveshaft with one hand and the input yoke with the other,or the pinion yoke on the rearend with one hand and the driveshaft with the other
