Yeah I tried that method a while back because I remember you posting it long before this thread too. My problem was... my rear brakes didn't work that well (the reason the drums were comming off to check) and well in the process of putting in drive and giving it some gas... I hit the brakes to see if it broke loose, and i thought the axle stopped spinning so I put it in park. WRONG! lol lets just say the trans made an interesting sound I had never heard before
