That trans has sat around for a while since it was rebuilt.
I'm wondering if now that it finally has fluid in it, seals and all will swell/loosen and it will work as it supposed to. Tranny fluid is high in detergent.
I believe the tranny guys use some type of assembly lube or petroleum jelly to hold the check balls in place.
That lube may have dried out.
If not, I'll gladly refund your $$$

Bill , we are going to play with it a little to see if it frees up but not interested a refund . Im just glad we are getting close to being done.

Hey John, I heard you guys are going to get freezing rain and about 9" of snow. If the little bit of snow you got before wrecked havok.......imagine what this will bring.....stay inside and stay safe.

Our state and local officials are getting real worked up over this one .After staying on campus last night for nothing Im just glad to be home ,never been so bored in my life .I have a generator ,gas and hopefully enough firewood and my work is closed for tomorrow so Im happy to stay inside . I hope this whole storm turns into a non event.

Oh man flash. I hope it misses you. Stay safe and keep Joan home from work so she doesn't get stuck. I think you both deserve a sick day.

Our work is closed tomorrow so I may even sleep late ,maybe til 8 AM .

Been hearing this is going to be a very bad ice storm and snow. Stay safe John.

Flying out of Dublin this morning to JFK...not sure where I'll end up after that...EVERYTHING in/out of Atlanta is canceled and don't want to hang out too long in NYC because it's heading up the East coast Wed evening and Thursday.
Going to be fun...

Bill ,good luck getting back home ,be safe wherever you wind up .We started off with freezing rain late last night and woke up to heavy snow on top of that and its still snowing .I just hope we dont lose power . I am soooo ready for spring.

I'm back in the States...flew from Dublin to JFK today and connected to Buffalo, NY this afternoon.
I wanted to get out of NYC by tonight...storm is headed up the East coast.
Got famlily & friends here I can visit with here in Buffalo plus there are non stops to Atlanta or I can go thru Detroit...even back thru JFK or LGA if necessary.
Would like to get home by Friday if at all possible...Anne's B-day.

John...turn that heat up!!!!!!!
Man, if I had a way to get them home...I'd buy up all the sleds and snow coasters I could find around here and sell them back home. ;)
