Killed the tranny - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I think I killed the tranny in the K5 today. I knew I was gonna replace the TH350 with an overdrive at some point, but didn't expect to have to do it this soon. I was running the truck up and down the street in front of the shop. Truck was pulling hard around 4500 RPM in 2nd, it hesitated, then no more go. Coasted to a stop (the engine still runs fine). It has no forward gears 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, or reverse. Dropped the truck into 4LO, and nothing there either. I checked the fluid and it still looks clean...dipstick just say a pint low. This sucks.
