Good for another 70K miles?  :)
Spoke too soon!


5 years later and 45k miles (just hit 300k 7 days ago), it seems to have flipped again. 

Got in the truck this morning and put it in reverse and heard a pop. Then gave it some gas and it creeped like a clutch was slipping. Same symptoms as before, very little movement in drive or reverse but manual 1/2 works fine. 

I did replace the overdrive shaft (outer race) and the overdrive planetary with used parts from ebay so that might have been the contributor to the premature failure.

I'm going to source new/reman parts on this replacement.
