Did you figure out what caused the glide to fail?
Sorry just saw this. Yes there was a shaving or something stuck in a bypass valve port. The trans was trying to spin low/high gear at the same time. The manufacturer rebuilt/shipped the trans back to me in less than 7 days for free.

Its defiantly FAR from perfect. My attention to detail on the little **** is lacking and it shows. The paint is shitty and the body lines are fucked... Its usually dirty and there are a slew of zip ties used on the car but this thing hauls ***, turns heads and cruises the streets reliably!
When I tore the truck back down for its current set of updates I must have cut 1000 zip ties off that bitch.

Yeah the little POS is holding up so far it is down on power pretty good and I'm trying to find out where.. I think these tiny air filters are holding it back a bunch. I will find out on Friday.
