Hmmmm.... "whirrrr" sounds... yeah I had some of those.

I am not too sure when in the time-line of events this thread was a hot topic for me, but I do know that afterwards at some point in time I was driving down the freeway and pole vaulted the rear end of my truck with the drive shaft. So that being said, I am leery of giving any advice other then have a good professional check it out for you. Especially after causing that much damage to your undersides!

yeah..so i had a better look at it this afternoon. the bracket holding it has completely folded up and that box is now pretty much upside down. ill have to bend it back to somewhat normal shape..just to get the bolts off. so far, no vibrations. its still there so still counteracting the vibrations im sure...just not in its original location

...yet another thing to put on my fix list..
