Unhappy Blown input shaft

Mon night the truck tossed the input shaft on the way home from work. When it let loose it took out the clutch(1 week old)the collar in the front of the tranny the bearing retainer for the input shaft and the bottom shaft in the tranny. The now free parts went forward into the clutch which preceded to launch the through the bell housing and it also ate the slave cyl. Quick guess 3k plus in parts alone. Ouch. I will be passing on the Mud bogs this weekend. I just don't think the tow truck would make it to far towing my truck. I will post more later.
