man, what have you been doing to that tranny? have you been changing the fluids at the scheduled intervals? or have you been racing it or "manually shifting" it?

whoa whoa whoa wait a sec - what seal did you change???? Did you take a cv axle out and have a bunch of fluid splash out on your head?? If so thats atf and you needa refill your tranny bud. Other than that, will it PHYSCIALLY go into drive or reverse? Or will it go into it and jsut not go anywhere.

I can almost garantee u -something got messed up when replacing the seal - although i still dont know what seal youre talking about and ive had the auto tranny and motor out several times and have ppulled them apart several times. COuld just be the linkage out of adjustment - if it is it cna prevent it from shifting into gear. Also if you drained the torque converter it takes like 3.5 quarts of fluid so that + draining the tranny means you need to fill it with almost 8 qts to get it back to full Gimme the step by step on wat you did to replace this seal and ill do my best to troubleshoot on here - or if you wanna call - pm me and ill give u my number

did you refill with fluid? even check fluid? Did you possibly cut the torque converter o-ring by accident? did you get the torque converter fully seated back on the pump shaft? will it move or go into gear if you rev it? There are a lot of details missing and plus we don't know what exactly is going on since we aren't there so you can either:

1. Take it to the dealer or a shop.
2. If you are hands on, do a manual trans swap.

Its your rear-main seal you changed. I wouldn't take advise from anyone on here that had no clue what that seal was. Just IMO.

Is drive shaft seated properly into the transmission?
