wife used the truck yesterday driving on the highway when it acted like it was in neutral (she said no noise no nothing) i took the drive shaft off to tow it and checked again putting it in gear, transmission wount move a bit

last time i broke it it started slipping and stuff like that so this is new to me

any ideas what it might be?

Yep!
mine did the same thing.. cruising down the interstate at 70.. then all of a sudden its on the rev limiter.. NO gears.
ears on the pump broke for some reason.. i had put about 4k miles on it too.
I was so pissed i held it on the 6800rpm rev limiter for a long time.. It didnt blowup so i got the pump fixed and then that trans broke and i went with the 80E from there.. much much happier with it.

so u fixed the pump and then how many miles later did the trans broke?

u think i might have a chance after fixing the pump?

not long.. maybe 5000 miles.. broke the output shaft.

ok u think it had something to do with the pump problem or just bad trans quality?

I put about 1000 miles on mine before my pump grenaded from not getting the converter seated well

dunno.. it shifted too hard and i had adjusted the pressures down in the tune as far as it would go.. didnt help so kept driving it.
i didnt know much about transmissions back then tho.
