The torque converter cracked on my friends ride and spat out fluid everywhere for about 10-20 sec b4 it was killed out. He got a new TC and we replaced it tonight, got everything going and on the test drive after about 5 min of driving when shifting into 2nd gear we heard a pop and all the sudden there was no more tranny. It's like its in neutral in all gears now. The tc is still spinning obviously but nothing out the output shaft??? Anyone have an idea as into what might of just happened? My guess is either the front pump just took a crap or we just mangled some clutch packs?

does it sound like it shifts? or just revs? it could be you forward clutch just went out but I don't understand why. that can cause some problems, I've seen a low and reverse clutch go out and it was metal everywhere, it messed up the clutch packs big time.

It revs like its in neutral only. There no shifting sound but there is a whining sound. If you put it in anything but park it doesn't idle down like theres a load like usual either obviously.

torque converter could also have taken a dump too

my guess is your first converter took out your pump. thats exactly what mine did when it went.
