I just had the AOD tranny re-built in my 92 5.0 302 vert, about 3 months ago. Now I know that a re-build consists of only replacing parts that were "out of spec". I had them install a B&M hammer shifter, and i don't think it was put in correctly.
I have to slam the thing forward for it to go into park, or hold it forward till it rolls slightly back to a complete stop. Second issue, it feels like the car is lugging around at low speeds & does not always downshift smooth. I know it has to be something off, b/c it does shift smooth more times than not. The car also gets with it when floored. 3rd issue is the hammer shifter lets you flip down to 1st & then back up (like tip tronic in newer cars)... I can upshift 3 times before hitting the stop. If I let off the gas, I seem to go into nuetral. I read that a bolt has to be placed in, to possibly get that extra upshift out. Also, when I was putting in my stereo, it looks like the trans cable is not hooked to the shifter, but pulled tight & screwed to the frame?????
* Has anyone installed a shifter, or even better the hammer in their stang? Need help quick, as warranty on tranny is only for a year & damage is not wanted.
