Sounds like the reverse clutches are shot. Not an uncommon thing. Depending on the overall condition of the trans and the miles it may be time for a rebuild. If you choose to do just the reverse clutch pack like I did there is also an updated front pump that should be replaced while your in there. Since the reverse clutch pack is at the front of the trans it is not too bad a job for a DIY'er if your so inclined.
