Sounds like a typical sound shell that snapped, losing 4th and reverse. Definitely time for a rebuild. That is a common 4l60e problem. This time get a hardened one.

Yep. I concur.
35823AHD The Beast 700R4 4L60E Transmission sun gear shell.

The Beast Shell. 700R4 4L60E automatic transmission reaction sun gear shell.
Required thrust washer is included. About $65.
There are a few performance parts to consider also like 4th gear servo, updated band and a higher pressure boost valve. If its older then consider replacing the electronic control solenoids.

It could be a DIY project but some special tools are needed plus some background experience or help is needed.

Let us know how this turns out. : )
