Default won't shift out of 3rd

sorry if i ask here i dont know how to do a post but i have a chevy express explorer van with a 4l60e transmission and a 5.3 v8 twin turbo and i have a problem with my transmission
its stuck on 3th gear and wont change and today i tried to get it on a trailer to transport it to a workshop and i drove down the hill and put it into neutral and turned the engine off while in motion and all of the sudden for a second the wheels blocked and after that i turned the engine on and put it into drive and it started doing like grinding and ratteling sounds.
I would be thankful if anybody can help me

Welcome to the forum.
Please do not hijack other people's questions like you did. Post your own, it's not hard. You just hit the big yellow "New Thread" button at the top of the van section.
I've moved your question to a new thread for you , this time.

Always provide all the information that people need to help you. Like the model year, and number of miles/km. Thanks.

We are going to have to see photos of this twin turbo 5.3

This is not only illegal, but pretty dangerous. Don't do that.

that's going to need a transmission replacement.
