May of lost your balls out on the highway.

I would just jack up one and then the other where the drive wheels are, carefully put it in gear after hitting the parkig brake and see if that wheel in teh air turns. Maybe kick the wheel to see if it is just freewheeling or has some force. Then the other side. The side with less force is likely where the problem occured. Then you have two cvc joints, inner and outer. Its cheaper to replace the whole axle in most cases and easier. Of course you can look for a turn boot or just wiggle the axle halfs and see which one has more play in it.

Thats just if its the axles or a cvc joint.
