"RPMs would rise and not feel any pull" almost like I was in neutral. When I took it into a shop they said it had burnt 3rd and 4th gear down to absolutely nothing so I had to have the whole thing replaced.
    3rd and 4th are the ones that toasted on mine too. I drove it until it wouldn't go out of 2nd....lol. Might as well get the most I could out of it

    I got a tranny with a 1 yr 100% warranty and another 2yr parts only warranty for 850 bucks shipped to the shop. It was Green something or another. They are a huge salvage parts company. It shipped from Tx, not sure if the company is in Tx or not. The pallet said 02 Trooper on it IIRC. No worries, they are all the same.
