HELP! A904 skipping 2nd gear.

The first time it happened I adjusted the band and everything was good. In hindsight it was probably a sign that the band was worn out, because the second time it happened it couldn't be adjusted tight enough to work. It turned out the band had no friction material left and It was gouging the drum. That made the tranny rebuild a little more complicated because the drum needed to be replaced, which is apparently not normal.
Well it did last you a year and a half at least. Thanks for the info! I think it's probably time for mine to get overhauled.
