Something fell off car and it won't drive
so I was driving my car and something sounded like it popped off, the car wouldn't drive and every gear I would throw it in sounded like it would grind. I found a ball joint covered in oil, I have no idea what it is. I'll upload pics when I get the chance.

this is one of the pieces I found on the road, another one was a ball covered in oil. I was thinking maybe the drive shaft? I pushed the car in neutral and it sounds like the noise is coming from the left rear tire

Just a question:
If you have no intentions of fixing the car yourself, and it's already been narrowed down to an axle or driveshaft, then what is the point in continued bumping this thread with uninformed guesses? |

I have never heard of such thing happening. Your drivetrain has definitely been messed with and not put together right by the previous owner. Sorry man
