Default Think my 10 bolt might be going out???

Tonight i was leaving a parking lot and i was driving about 10-15 mph when i heard an extremely loud POP...

when i got onto the highway my car was vibrating kinda like an out of balance tire... then it started making a loud humming sound from the rear and it was driving weird.. i pulled over checked the tires and everything was fine..

got back on the highway and noticed when i accelerate the rear makes a tink tink clinking sound? (also does something similar when i turn)..

also when in park the car can roll .5 to 1 foot back and forth...


im pretty sure my rear is going out.. and the tranny has been shifting extremly hard and shitty into 2nd...

Definately sounds like the rear, you may make it back to houston but its a risk.
