C4 post rebuild issues.

Just finished rebuild of my C4 Tranny in my 1972 f100. I slips a little in reverse and slips a little more in 2nd low. Also will not start off in 1st while in drive. I made sure the governor parts were in good shape when installed. Any ideas?

You might want to check the band adjustments?

Unhappy

Thanks cujo, I have rechecked the bands and they are good. It feels like in drive that it is starting in 3rd, I can drop it down to first and get it, but when I put it in 2nd it slips and reverse slips. So i think it is pulling off in 3rd in drive.

Maybe it's a valve body issue then or a line pressure problem?
