As the weather got a bit colder nothing crazy happened, until it got to about 20ish degrees.

When i start my blazer in the cold, (it has a sm465 w/np208) and when i shift into granny or reverse, its like something inside is frozen. my smart idea was to put it in 4lo, in granny and let the clutch out until something happened and it jolted the whole truck when the clutch was pretty much all the way out, and something broke free.

this was the 3rd time this happened and each time it wasn't incredibly horrible, but enough to give a look into it. When it breaks free, there isn't any grinding or winding, and its fine through out the day until it sits over night below freezing.

I have't had anything quite like this happen so it's a bit of a head scratcher.
