I have an 05 Explorer XLT 4x4 that I just finished a transmission rebuild. It had no forward prior to the rebuild. It slammed into reverse and was rough. Now that the rebuild is complete, it won't go forward or reverse. I've double checked all of the connections, and everything looks good. Fluid level is spot on. No harsh noises or sounds. No leaks.

Here is what was done:
Replaced the 3 servos
Installed a shift correction kit
new frictions
new steels
new bands (all 3)
various O rings and seals

What am I missing? Where else can I look? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I would check to see if you failed to engage the manual valve when reinstalling the valve body.
 






Did you use the same kind of filter? A shallow filter is for RWD while a deep filter is for 4 X 4 (deep pan).

Definitely used the same, deep, filter.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you. I believe I set it correctly but will double check this if nothing external proves to be the issue.
