if its in reverse and you rev it high and it starts inching back , most likely its the reverse clutches check the trans oil and if its purplish brown most likely you need to get it rebuilt

No reverse would be a mechanical issue like mentioned its it was sudden I have seen the LOW/REVERSE piston and the REVERSE INPUT drum piston crack and cause this. But your definatly gonna be rebuilding or replacing

Well if it was a built trans It should the beast shell with your setup , I have never seen a beast strip the teeth out. If it didn't have one thats what you should replace with, And why are you buying it I would think that would be under warranty. Or is it a labor only warranty no hard parts I have seen some written that way.
