That happens both rolling and when engine powered.. However, in my experiances with the plantery's failing, reverse did stop working, but with a little bit of gentle persuasion, it would go in reverse, almost like driving over a brick.. haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a new and strengthened drive plate ready to go in and waiting on some new ARP bolts to secure it and back together it will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
