Left work the other day, approximately 1/2 throttle IF that and when it was was supposed to go into 2nd, nothing. Made it to the side of the road but it had no gears at all. It would roll forward in neutral but not in reverse and it stayed locked up like that even while being winched onto the flat deck. Talked to the shop today and there is not much salvageable. They aren't sure if the output shaft broke first and tore up the back half before taking out the front pump which then tore up the front of the transmission or vice versa. Their rebuild guy says he has only seen a broken output shaft like this once before in 40 years, but a quick Google search shows it is quite common in the higher horsepower cars and trucks but not much mentioned in stock applications. So far I'm looking @ around a $3500 repair bill. I'll post some pics of the broken bits once I can get some. I'm just right now.
