I have seen a couple units like this posted on the net before and I had one in the shop years ago that the most of the case was still intact. I feel that this happens when the input drum literally explodes. Look at the picture it seems to be missing. I think what happens is pieces of the input drum get lodged between the sunshell and the case. When this happens everything wants to come out. Thanks for the picture. Vince

I blew the one up in the truck some what like that, output shaft exploded and case was in 4 pieces. I took the crossmember off, and half of the trans came with it.
