The clutch pack for 3rd / 4th gear is the most likely problem.

It is a simple re build, but the trans has to come out. You don't need a new trans, just some parts.

Once they start slipping, they go down hill fast from there.

Ok I am going to have to find a good transmission shop here in baltimore because my regular mechanic just keep saying i need a new transmission but if ive been riding like this for all this long time and am still able to back up it cant be the entire transmission THANKS!
