hey guys im a new ford ranger owner as well as a new member here on TRS. I just purchesed a 2000 xlt from a friend at work knowing it had a transmission problem. the truck runs and drives great, it only did not shift into overdrive. so i did tons of research and figured out it was a blown valve body gasket. i then ordered a valve body gasket set and a transgo shift kit from trans parts usa. After installing the shift kit i reinstalled the vb with new gaskets. filled trans with new mercon v fluid. now as soon as i start the truck it does not move in any gear. when u accelerate the engine the truck feels like it wants to move forward in all gears. not sure where i screwed up. i need all the help i can get this is my first time working on transmissions. aswell this is my only vehicle and need it running soon. and if i had the money i would of took it to a shop but funds are low and tried saving some money by doing it my self. any ideas or comments will be apprciated, thanks.
