the how i fixed my ax4n tranny article is great. you will need to get the valve body out and then open the pump case and check and see if anything inside it is broken like the two guide rings. you will also want to make sure that the pump shaft is making a solid connection inside the pump and also inside the torque converter as well. you may also want to check for sticking valves and broken retaining clips.
