That happens from a combination of no torque management and shifting too firm. If you have good traction and set up a 4L60-E to chirp the tires on a shift it will break hard parts. Always.
Since you're not open to any other options but putting another 700R4-based transmission in your truck, there's no point to go to the trouble of linking you to 60 other threads of people who have experienced your same fate.
