blown rear end?

blown rear end?
so i backed out of my driveway last night and i felt a jerk and heard a clunk. then pulled it back into my driveway and it clunked more and sounded like the teeth in the differential where grinding at each other. anyway today i tried it again and this time the drive shaft was spinning but nothing else was happening.
so could it be the rear differential?
or the whole axle together?
i have been mudding alot so that is probably what caused this.
so what could i do to make sure this doesnt happen again.
thanks

Do you have the 7.5 or 8.8?

somehow you trashed your ring and pinion, so it would seem.
pull the diff cover and see what the carnage is (and post a pic, we LOVE carnage!).
the whole axle won't be wrecked, but it will be far cheaper, and easier for the shade-tree mechanic to replace it as an assembly, and upgrade while you're at it.
