So my teenaged son rebuilt his 99 dodge 2500 truck tranny with his shop teacher and now he can not get it to go into gear while running. The clutch is not in backwards, the slave cylinder and master has been replaced and bled. We are at a loss. Any suggestions?
Need a replacement transmission? Quality transmissions are hard to find. Free estimate to your email.Have you checked all the linkages? I know you probably have, but I have to ask you. It’s easy to overlook the most obvious parts. If the linkages are bad then there’s no way the transmission is shifting into gear. Make sure, while you are at it, the cable isn’t binding in the runner. This is another easy one to miss. With that said, you might want to go into the transmission and take a look at the very end of the cable. It should terminate in a lever that’s about four-inches-long. It has a hook at the end. The lever turns about a-quarter of the way around and actuates the transmission shifter. Because it is located inside the transmission, it’s another easy part to miss. However, if you miss it, your transmission won’t go into gear and the truck won’t move.
Also, I would urge you to have your son and his teacher go through the transmission step-by-step because it is possible that a clip or spring may be installed in reverse, keeping everything from working.
I’ll be surious to hear what’s wrong, let me know.
