700r4 reverse

Recently the transmission has had a harder and harder time going into reverse. The trans. shop here all won't explain why, just wants $1100 for a rebuild. Does it need it? Im wondering if it's not a peice I can replace and keep going. Forward is fine, maybe slipping a little under wot in 3rd. Trans was allegedly rebuilt 2-3 years ago so I don't know the mileage.

If it's slipping even a little, it doesn't have long for this world...


It sounds like the 3-4 pack and possibly other clutches are on their way out. These arn't like brake pads and slight and continued slipping will destory them quick, causing even more slip and......
