I had my tranny rebuilt about 5000 miles ago, and last week it dumed all fluid. I was driving down the road and it just all came out. Come to find out my bellhousing losened up from the tranny. So I took it out, put in a new seal and torqued the bolts back up. Now my tranny works fine in reverse when the tranny is cold and hot, but in drive it pulls well cold until the tranny warms up and then it slips and ingages at high rpm. Im thinkin maybe clutch pack? Any one have any input?

Take it back to who ever rebuilt it and tell them to fix it.

I would but it was over two years ago. The converter didnt run out of oil. And if it were bad reverse should not work either rite?? I tried adjusting the intermediate band and it did nothing.
