E4OD toast?
No forward or reverse. When it first happened, it wouldn't go back into park and made a grinding noise. I have absolutely nothing now. Not even park. The shifter will sit in park, but I can roll the truck. Fluid level seems fine. I'm assuming it's kaput. Any chance I'm reading this wrong?
I've swapped in junkyard transmissions on other vehicles, but I don't have the time, space, or help to do it now. How much should I expect to pay for a good rebuild?

IS it 4 wheel drive? Sounds more like transfer case is in neutral? Park should lock in place even if transmission is shot? Well the old C6 park was mechanical. I would think the E4OD were same.
If not 4X4 possible the yoke is slipping on splines, broken ring / pinion, snapped output shaft on trans ... but that your back to trans rebuild.

When I tried to shift it back into park, it made a real bad grinding sound. I shut it off in Neutral. Shifted to park. Restarted it. So the shifter is in Park position but I can roll the truck. I'd be surprised if the pinion broke because it really shouldn't have been under stress. I was just backing up slowly in the driveway.

That strongly suggests that the problem is behind the transmission. Put it in gear and have someone watch the driveshaft to see if it is spinning.

Driveshaft is spinning with transmission in gear. The problem is in the rear end.
Thank y'all for the help. I should have checked more. I just jumped to a conclusion.
