Unhappy Transmission shot ??

I recently lost a cv joint on my 89 323 (1.6L Manual Trans)
Replacement no problem but ever since I've had some nasty
noises and vibration on the front end and the gearshift.
At first I thought it was a wheel bearing.

Jacked it up last night and ran it free-wheeling
and if you turn the wheel to far to either side the right wheel
(side I just replaced) grinds to a stop. Plus the axle is bouncing
pretty good and the left wheel shows a lot of bounce (or either it's
out of round.)

Does the 5-speed manual transmission have a slip differential?
or has my tranny just died?
Any insights appreciated
