Back again with same problems
Back again with same problems Well i had posted my issue awhile back and they seemed to vanish somehow.. Im almost positive it has to be the trans. i figured if there was a problem there it would eventually come up, especially the way i drive 
lol. Well anyways I was told several different things by some on here, most said it was the sunshell or sun gear or something. Well I bought the trans from a good friend of mine so i am pretty sure i was not getting screwed over i even rode in his car with this trans in it. Well to make a long story short as soon as we got the trans in i drove it a bit to make sure everything was good, drove it home pulled in the drive and went to back up to turn around and it wouldn't move, acted like it would go into reverse but was locked up, but it did previously when i drove it. Not even in neutral would it roll backwards, it was on an incline and once i got it on a flat surface it found it would roll forwards in neutral but not backwards. After the problems went away and me driving the crap out of it, it did something a lil different. I left home and drove a couple blocks and it started kinda bucking/clunking i took it back home and now it wont roll backwards at all again, in reverse or neutral. It will go forwards but almost seems to be a lil hesitant. Any ideas? Thanks in advance everyone. Doug

Doug well if it wont roll backwards in reverse there are a couple possibilities the sprag in forward could be damaged, the low sprag could be damaged, the forward clutch could be seized though that would cause forward in neutral, In any case does sounds like a trans problem that will require a tear down since theres no electrical issue that could cause this type problem , Sounds like a case of bad luck ,

It's not something simple - like a broken shift linkage. Mine acted strange like that in reverse-the installer broke the linkage when they dropped the tranny. Wouldn't go into reverse and wouldn't hold in park.
A new shift linkage and it shifted ok again.
