700r4 is about to force me to sell the truck!!!!!

[americanmusc1e]

I'm about out of hope for my truck. the 700r4 that I've spent $$1500 on over the past year just lost all gears with a big bang (literally). I've had it in the shop for numerous problems over the past year.

I got it built last March -- $1300, it survived the almost stock 350 just fine, it was supposed to be built to withstand 450hp

Less than a month after I put the new 383 in the front seal in the transmission went out. It didn't cost me anything except the labor to pull it out.

less than a month later the whole front pump went out, the transmission guy said I didn't put it in right, so I let him put it in -- $250, my truck was also vandalized because he left it outside his shop over the weekend.

I just had it in there a couple weeks ago for another front seal

now, today the thing blew up leaving me stranded in the middle of the road!!! I think the input drum went. (just a guess)

has anyone else had problems with 700r4's??????

I don't know what I'm gonna do, I don't have enough money for a new transmission and I don't want to see another 700r4!!!
