Message: [QUOTE="cbuttre835, post: 518295, member: 1190"] its a 97. Builder said OD planet set was 4 pinion steel, forward set was three pinion aluminum, going back with six pinion steel. He'd only seen this failure a couple of times. I don't know how the transmission operates internally; but I'm guessing that when it hits OD, this gearset is supposed to move and provide a ratio change instead of turning as an assembly... and since it was stuck the rapid heat increase and sluggishness I saw was due to some clutches slipping, very very rapidly. FWIW, Truck made it to the shop on its own power, about 35 miles, with the OD cancel on. I babied it and it did heat up but not like the night of the failure. [/QUOTE]
