98 legacy 4eat problem

(4eat 98 legacy) ok heres a summary of what happend:

1. undercar around front diff area was making sputtering noise kinda sounds like an "exhaust leak" and at sometimes sounds like engine knock but not all the time(sounded like that for 3 weeks)
2. trans begins to slip grab slip grab at highway speeds
3. a loud bang happend at 60mph and felt like something locked up for a sec
4. pulled over(smoke came out) and trans goes into drive but when giving gas feels like ebrake is on and once obtaining walking speed it sounds like gears whining
5. when put into reverse sounds like gears grinding or something and when in nuetral car cannot be pushed in reverse it locks up but can be pushed forward.
6. car can move in reverse if front wheels lifted off ground.
