tranny not shifting

i recently bought a rebuilt tranny for my bronco. at first we bought a brand new one right off the line and the ****** gave us the wrong fly wheel and some how it pushed the pump into the bearing and snapped it off. they said it was our fault and made us pay for the repairs but it was cheaper to buy a rebuilt one from the same company. after installing our new crate motor we put the tranny on and hooked up everything the right way. when we took it down the road however it would not shift out of first gear. we double checked everything and the linkage was hooked up fine but it won't shift after a week of easy driving. if you have any ideas please reply.

What trans is it? If it's a C-6 did you make sure the modulator valve is good and the vacuum line is hooked up to it and not plugged up.
