it should have a 700r4 trans. you could probably pick one up at bone yard for around $300. the same thing happened to one of the guys i worked with. he blew out his reverse gear while off roading.

how does the rest of the gears in the trans work? you probably just have a broken reaction shell gear (common on 700r-4 and 4l60 trans) and that is not that expensive of a part to buy
