Cruise o matic Issues
Hey everyone I know this is a truck site but this is a transmission question , my brother has a cruise o matic transmission in his 1964 thunder bird that just blew up some how. (no visible carnage left in pan or in oil), we got a second tranny that came out of a truck that "supposedly worked when taken out" after swapping the tail shaft housings , torque converters and bell housings he now only has reverse and third gear ( better than no gears but still not optimal) , when placed in low the car shakes as if your trying to do a burn out but nothing happens, you kinda jiggle back in forth as if its stuck in multiple gears at the same time. I have no idea as to what the issue can be or where to begin to look.
Thanks for any Help Henrys'66,

You can try posting in the trans forum Clutch, Transmission, Differential, Axle & Transfer Case - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums (ford-trucks.com)
Don't expect a lot of help on a trans that old. If you reused a torque converter from a blown-up transmission you just filled your replacement trans with whatever garbage was in there form the old trans.
My advice is to have one of the transmissions rebuilt.
