Default Clutch slips in reverse only???

I went to back up today and the clutch was slipping bad. Surprise to me...so i put it in first and no slip at all. Drove arourd for a bit and went to a empty parking lot. Slipped in reverse and then drove off like nothing was wrong. Any ideas what is up with this?

Your at the beginning of the end. Start looking for a replacement trans.

It's the OD failing. You can rebuild them.
