As the title states I completely lost only reverse. I can shift in the car with the gear shifter or shift it from the transmission and still no reverse. The reverse lights come on but thats it. I recently got the tranny built by tre like 6 months ago. Only other problem I have had it would pop out of 5th sometimes. I would just hold it in and it would be fine. Thought maybe it needed broke in still. Never any grinding or anything. Reverse always worked fine until today.

So every other gear works and I manually shift it at the transmission and nothing. Anything I can do or do I just have to send it off? I also searched and didnt find anything with just reverse and no grinding.
 
i say drain the tranny and pull the end cap off and check to see if the gear came off

I'm a little iffy on breaking the tranny open. That's one thing I've never done to this car. Waiting for a reply from tre still. I don't wanna tear into it unless I know it's something not too difficult. Just wanted some advice on possible culprits.
