Probably the input/output shaft. The charge for a refresh depends on what they have to change. Likely all you'll be looking at is shipping and whatever you broke. Perhaps even new bands while they're in there.

Man that sucks, I really feel your pain....what can you do but do what you must? Have you spoken with FLT yet? They'll get you back up as painlessly as possible, I'm sure.

Mark, do you have any idea what broke? Do you have hardened input/output shafts?
not sure I think its the output shaft but not certain??? No I didn't get the hardened input or output shafts. I figured I was already getting something much more stout, I already had 2500 into it and didn't think another 400 was necessary. I guess I was wrong

I havent talked FLT yet. Im tempted to put a damn stocker in there for now. I have another kid due in march. X-mas comming up and december and January already being slow Im super tight on money right now. I'll probably just park the damn thing for a while and get my beater fixed first since it will be alot cheaper.

Do you still have reverse? This is what mine 65e kept doing and only reverse would work. Wasn't a hard fix, but still have to pull the trans and all the guts just to change them out.
