Ive had that once in a Vauxhall viva. Dont drop the clutch in reverse when its got one wheel stuck on a wall. It belonged to a flatmate many decades ago and I had borrowed it. Cost me $40 for a new gearbox and 2 hours lieing on a gravel driveway changing it working by an old 40w bulb type work light.It was also raining a little. Vauxhall Viva gearboxes are lighter than Isuzu diff heads by a large margin
