No, I don't.
Remove the front drive shaft and put your t/case into high lock which will allow you to drive on the rear shaft only till you get your repairs made assuming you didn't damage the tranny.

Same thing

My front drive shaft failed at the transfer case. I have an 03 disco. I took the shaft off but when I put it in park it makes a grinding noise. Transmission did not get damaged but also hear grinding when I put in drive and lightly hit the gas. Does anyone know what’s messed up off the top of your head?
