Truck stops in reverse
I was at Walmart yesterday, and was getting ready to back out of my parking spot. I put it in reverse backed up about 5 feet, and the truck just stops. I put it in drive for a second, pulled forward about a foot, and put it back in reverse and it went another 6 feet then stopped again. It felt like it was in the rearend, but I couldn't tell for sure.
Is my g80 going bad, or is it something else?

I never thought about the parking break, I just did all new rotors, and stainless braided flex lines. Maybe I'll take them back apart just to see.

check caliper bolts (just in case). if you lost one, the caliper could shift when moving in one direction or the other. could be fine in drive, but shift in reverse & binding against the rim. had a cousin that let a "shadetree" shop replace pads and rotors on an old Lumina. I drove the car while he was out of town, and guess what bound itself to the rim...

Well, I think fossil was sort of right, I di some investigating it isn't the rear end, or brakes. When it does it if I put it in N it feels like it want to move forward, so I revved it a little and at about 1500rpm it grabbed and barked the tires a little. I called flt and Vince said he thinks it's something to do with the 1st gear clutches. So after I talked to him I went out and logged some with hpt and it says it's shifting to 3rd when I put it in R, but only after I drive a little bit. If I just jump in start it up and put it in R it works just like it should.
I'm gonna yank the pan and see if I can tell if anything is burnt, and probably end up shipping it back to get it refreshed.
