Stalling in reverse
1999 f350 4x4 diesel automatic stalls in reverse when I give it any throttle. Acts just it was a standard tranny and you let the clutch out too fast. One tranny shop says the front pump must be warped, says he pulled a code saying the tranny was trying to go into 3rd and reverse at the same time and that's why it stalls. another shop says torque converter, another wants to rebuild the whole thing, but nobody seems to know exactly what the problem is.
Any ideas??
Also, I can't get the 4x4 hubs to unlock when using ESOF. Help?

Stall when engaging transmission (automatic, usually manual low or reverse):
Torque Converter Clutch.
This may be caused by the TCC being engaged at idle. On trucks built before 9-20-95 the correction is a new transmission front pump and/or torque converter. On trucks built after the above date, it could be cause by a loose transmission filter. In this case, install a flat magnetic strip (from a Tempo ATX or Ranger A4LD transmission) in the trans pan below the filter pick up to retain the filter in place or use an updated filter from Ford that has bumps cast into the plastic to help it stay in place.
