Before you go tearing into a clutch, remove the OD solenoid, clean it and replace its internal O-rings.
OD operation fine when cold then progressivly worse when warm usually indicates worn actuating piston O-rings.
But when a slippage stating with second gear is pressent, the OD solenoid is the place to start troubleshooting. Fluid pushed past interanl seals locks the OD on whihc creats a situation where the OD is on without power to the solenoid.
The OD has enough pressure to move internal parts at about 15MPH. If the solenoid is ON, The OD will slip as it trys to freewheel and direct drive at the same time.
E-mail me for a set of instructins on how to clean the solenoid.
