93 trans shifting problems

I have a 93 F-150 5.0 E4OD 4X4, I just replaced the trans and as soon as i went to shift I could not feel the linkedge move. I mesed with it for a while and it will shift from park to reverse,neutral,drive, it will not shift into seconend or first and it will not shift back from where ever i put the shifter. I can manualy shift it by puting a wrench on the nut and titening it to get back to park.
Does anyone know what might be the problem and if you do could you plese help.

Sounds like you need a second pair of eyes under the truck while you attempt to shift through the gears to see what's going on under the truck. I really don't know what to tell you. Is the cable binding somewhere? Is there something binding externally or internally at the trans?

I would check the cable. If you can move foreward but not backward then you are binding the cable somewhere.

I agree get a friend to watch the cable movement!
