Tranny Slipping in Forward Gears 3.0 Automatic

Took some Guys on a Test Ride Last Night and Buried the Truck to the Bumpers in the Middle of a Swampy Field. After Ram Rodding the Truck for an Hour Trying to get it out. The Transmission Started Slipping in all Forward Gears?????The Tranny works in Reverse But no Forward Drive at all in any Gears 4Hi 4lo 2Hi 1,2,d. I thought I just Overheated the Fluid but I went back this Morning and Same old Stuff. 3.0 Automatic.

Thank You

Dax

Yikes, you could have done irrepairable damage to your transmission, especially if the fluid got drastically overheated and caused all of your friction plates to glaze over / burn up...

Better start looking for a new tranny

The Truck is in Galloway Ohio 10 Miutes west of Columbus. At this Point if Somebody wants to Recover it they can have it For $150.00.

Thanks

Yeah that's why I was wondering where he was, there are about 3 or 4 A340H trannys for sale in the classified section right now and he could get lucky and find one close by. I got a good one in Oklahoma (shameless plug)

So it's still stuck? You could make way more than $150 by just parting the thing out...
