Forward pattern Cheetah.
Took the car to have it aligned and the idiot that INSISTED on driving it into the bay kept trying to use 3rd gear to move it. Get in the car to drive home and NO 2nd gear?!!
1st and 3rd work fine.
Accumulator cocked in the bore?

Thanks for the replies. The jam nut backed off and let the piece that goes between the adjuster screw and the band fall out...

Tex You can actually buy a "slip" or "snap" band to replace that band while the Trans is still in the car...just cut one end off the old band to slip it out...I install them into 2006 Dodge trucks all the time...
If you can't handle the truth, you're living a lie.......
