alright guys, the transmission shifts fine with the bell housing apart. once it's sealed back together, it wont shift at all. please watch the vid, and see if ya have any idea to whats wrong. I have no idea what it could be, considering i never tear apart transmissions.

come on guys... any ideas or info?
 
Those two rods are for the shifter,,,neither one has to do
with the clutch.
The clutch cylinder is mounted to the side of the trans and
move the clutch fork thru the belhousing
,,,there is 2 cables coming from the shifter base
they shift gears only
to me everything looks fine. Hard to tell those
what was the issue before tearing it apart?

One of the cable postitions the selector Sothe other
cable can shift into the gear,,,if not postioned right
they won't work,,,
 
Thanks for the reply. I'm not very familiar with transmissions, but that's what I'm here for LOL. By clutch cylinder, do you mean Slave Cylinder? that's mounted to the side of the transmission? The reason I needed it out is because there's a little plastic gear that snaps on the Differential (a Speedometer Driven Gear I assume) that broke. Since it broke it wouldn't spin my Speed Sensor Gear, so therefore my Speedometer wouldn't work. It was time for inspection, and nobody would inspect it because of the CEL. I cleared out the codes, and tried inspecting it, but that still wasn't successful.
 
Yes I was talking about the slave cyl.
Those 2 rods you were messing with are for the shifter
cables. #One goes one way,then the other shifts into gears 1&2
then then #one goes the other way then does 3&4 gear
that's the gist of it,,they work together,if not in he right
position it won't shift.
So was that plastic Gear broke? My guess is it wasn't.
 
yeah it was definitely broke. I ordered another as it was a dealership item. I've already gotten it back, now this is whats holding me up. Once those rods slide into the holes on the bellhousing, they lock up. The rod that is by itself, at the bottom(below the top 3 rods) doesn't line up with the hole perfectly, and you have to slide a screw driver in it and pull it back before it slides into the hole.
