Shift Kit Aftermath...shifter linkage?

[NorCal66]

Just put in a b&m transpak, all is done and together, with one minor problem... it won't go into Low. Goes fine through the rest of the gears, but won't go down into that bottom gear. I do NOT have the fluid in yet, I'm making sure it's hooked up alright before I add the 4 quarts taht takes about 3 hours to drain

I'm pretty sure it's gotta be the detent roller spring...but I put it back in where I remembered it being when I took it out. The transmission has been in park and I installed the roller on the notch closest to the rear of the car. Do I simply need to add fluid, or where did I screw up? Thanks a lot, I'm susposed to be at work in an hour!

Oh...it's a early 70s C-4.

Alright...I added the fluid and started er up and now every spot on the shifter is DRIVE. Park, Neutral, Revese, you name it, they all go forward. Any ideas?

I am guessing you missed the proper detent in the spool valve in the body. You should have noted the location on that valve when taking it apart. A factory manual may show you where it goes.
