Would you be against pulling the pan and seeing if the manual and fwd bands have the correct play as they should?

Only other thing that I found once that led me to suggest the reverse band was when Max had his band come off the anchor and in various gears it acted funny and as if it had a trans brake. I'd think that if the reverse is good and it's only going forward that it might lead us to either the fwd or manual bands. Which both should be able to be checked with just a pan drop.
