Pulled junkyard 80e pan, should I be worried? (pics)

All the pic's of the trans case look normal to me. The pick of the rear planet with what you think is missing is actually for balancing. That's not an issue. Take the over run and OD planet assembly apart and I'm pretty confident you are going to find your issue. HTH Vince

Wasn't doubting you initial post on the OD component, just wanted to throw up some pics and have someone who knows what they are looking at confirm.
Appreciate your help.

I totally agree with Vince. There simply aren't too many dainty components like those in the unit. The O/D roller clutch has a plastic bearing retainer so that leaves little doubt.
There will more components affected unfortunately... good luck with it man. I know that isn't what you wanted to hear. But it's good that you asked before installing it!

Not too bad though, could have been worse.
Thinking stock rebuild with shift kit and HD sprag
Thanks for the help guys

By early style are you referring to the 01 and down 16 element sprag? I had thought this transmission was from an 03 but from searching the OD roller clutch above looks to be the 01 and down style. So just keeping the stock sprag that's there now would suffice?

Yes I like the large roller design with the all black plastic cage. The blue and black plastic cage is the late design. This was suppose to be an updated part however I have seen more of these fail or damage the OD planet and still look good. When I say early I make reference to the 01 and earlier design with the .309 OD rollers. You will find in some 01 units that you could have the .196 OD which I call the late design. Now to put a spin on all this year specific stuff. In some of the later units you could still have the early design but it would depend on the build code of the unit and what the unit was in to begin with. I honestly do not have all the info on what units had what until I get them apart and in most cases I tear down units and then order parts when doing this kind of stuff. I hope this answered your question here. Vince

I went ahead and called up Jake's Performance and got a basic rebuild kit, shift kit and the same OD roller clutch I have now. I will check the intermediate roller clutch when I pull the rest apart and upgrade if needed.

You should have a 34 element sprag in your unit already but I would recommend replacing it as well with a new one. In most cases the drum and reace will still be good so can get away with just replacing the element. With the damage you had in the OD section you will need to replace the OD planet and the over run drum I mentioned above. Good luck with the build. If you have any questions just let me know. Vince

For the OD planet and drum replacement, I took the planet completely apart, cleaned out all the bits of plastic, reinstalled the four gears and it seems to be fine, I cant find any damage. Is replacing these parts just for peace of mind or are they likely to go out based on what happened to the OD clutch? Not questioning you, just for my own curiosity.
Also, the output shaft had a bolt on yoke, do I need to replace it or this current one will work fine with the slip yoke?
