I have a horrible grinding noise when I try to put it into reverse. I did the valver body rebuild with all the normal upgrades... Ford TSB Update, Supioror Kit, Soxxax Boost Valve, and replaced the TTC and EPC Solenoids. When I pulled the VB off the Reverse Servo just fell out (sounds pretty common after reading some other posts). I put the new seal on it and shoved it back in. And after putting it all back together had no reverse along with a horrible grinding noise. Before the VB rebuild I had reverse. Along with that I also recently replaced the torque converter (after my local tranny shop said that it was shot). So as a last ditch effort to avoid a rebuilt, any sugestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Brad
