Hell i feel like my transmission th400 in M1009 is burnt. It looks normal but malfunctions. Fluid level is normal and shift linkage is normal . After i did very hard mudding with m1009 i noticed sth is wrong.
The problem is move forward only with very serious slipping. Actually almost no move. If i put in reverse, it goes forward only with serious slipping. I feel like i can’t shift it but linkage looks normal and move.
At P R N D 2 1, it barely move forward only

any idea?

Have you smelled the fluid ? Does it have a burnt smell and dark color ?
Sounds like burnt clutch packs or internal seal failure .

Going forward in reverse after "very hard mudding" could be that the forward clutch plates welded together as a result of extreme heat from slipping.

Probably binding the gears in the sun with the band too.
