Doubt it. wonder if your shift lever/linkage may have been damaged and knocked out of adjustment when the line got bent. Crawl under there with the vehicle on jack stands and try manually switching gears.
I did adjust the linkage,still no reverse.reverse work when i put the trans in the car.

Cooler lines have nothing to do with shifting into any gear.
If the Reverse failure was sudden, pull the pan and observe the band lever; if it's sagging or you can pull down on it with little/no resistance, look for a broken band, broken band linkage or band link popped out.
If the trans fliter is clogged,could that be part of it?
