So, I finally decide to take the time to put my pro 5.0 on my 95 TA. So...i get the old one out, put the pro 5.0 in and seal it back up. Get going down the road and go to back into a Mc D's parking spot and grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrind. No reverse, I was like ooooh no tranny done quit on me. So, i quickly seperate from the crowd of people and try it again. grrrrrrriiiiind.. yep...tranny. So I go down towards the shop being all ticked. I stop at a stop light and griiiiiiiiiiind in 3rd gear... this ain't good. Get going down the road 5th gear griiiiiiiiind, its spreading So then I realize. Ya know, I forgot to tighten up the stop bolts w/ 2 wrenches. Sure enough, get back to the shop after losing 1st, 3rd, 5th, and reverse. So 2 1/2" wrenches and a little loc-tite just for the heck of it and she's good as new. She's a smoooth shifting unit :thumbsup:

Glad I wasn't the only one that had troubles. Probably why that happened was a combination of being late and eagerness of wanting to see how it did.
