I have been tearing into his original transmission to figure out why his reverse went out. I have it completely disassembled and nothing is obviously damaged EXCEPT the FSM shows this clip on the Brake band that goes around the reverse clutch drum.

Thanks I kinda figured thats what it did, any idea why it would cause it to start in 2nd though? Seafoam causing it to be too thick giving it more pressure or something?

What might that indicate guys? Would bad solenoids cause this? Or are we still thinking its the seals i...

The tranny engages just fine and does not slip in terms of revving out without gaining speed, if you mash the gas cold or warm it grabs and goes just doesnt like to shift when cold. Thanks for the reply man just want to confirm the above is wha...

Hey guys new here with a question. My buddy has a 1995 pathfinder, he made the unfortunate mistake of hooking it with a tow bar behind his F-250 to tow it without removing the driveline. He only went a couple blocks before the tranny started smoking. Wierd thing was he only blew out reverse. all the...
