where are the sheared off lugs?

That is an excellent question. I have not found them in the pan on several occasions. During the onset of the problem and followup I had the pan off 3 times to clean, inspect the Valve body, put another valve body in, adjust kickdown etc.. None of that solved the problem. Note: the transmission engaged and shifted when cold but lost all engagement after stopping and placed into park at operating temperature.

It became apparent the transmission had to come out as it would not engage in any gear with suspected loss of pressure and hydraulics. The broken pump gears solved the mystery.

All that to say I have not seen any lugs or the remants of them. They are not in the front or rear clutch.
