look at it like this.
the gm owner would have just hit the blue button on their mirror and waited for someone else to come fix their truck.
Nissan owners will patch it to limp home and fix it properly...

How far did you travel like that?

Hopefully back roads, as this was not at all safe for you or any one around you!!

It got you home, therefore, it worked well enough.

Good work. The only thing I might have done differently is see if I could somehow put a strap around the nose of the differential and strap that to the frame somehow to keep it from rotating forward/back...

How'd you get the straps tight?

they are ratchet straps i put the hooks through the U-bolt mounting holes, ratcheted them down and then wrapped and tied the excess.
