Hey guys, I had quick question for you about my transmission. I have a 200r4 that I just put into my cutlass that hasn't been run since it was rebuilt. I finally got around to installing the driveshaft today and I noticed that when I have my car in reverse (not running) I am still able to push it.. but there is a clicking sound coming from the transmission. When I put it back into neutral it rolls like normal without clicking.

I also just installed a new B&M megashifter so I guess my question is do you think there might be something wrong with the transmission? Or maybe when installed the b&m shifter cable I didn't adjust it right and it's half way between neutral and reverse?

Anyways just thought I would see if anyone could offer some insight into this issue before I jack it up tomorrow to check the cable.

As always, any help is much appreciated!

Dave

So I ended up jacking the car up today and re adjusting the shifter cable. It definitely needed a small amount of adjustment but did not really change much.

With the car jacked up i was able to spin the rear wheel in every gear except for park. Is that normal? I thought the only time my car would be able to roll (when its not running) was when it was in neutral.

I plan on starting it all up sometime this weekend or early next week for the first time ever so I can't really test it under load until then. I just wanted to know if I should be preparing myself for some trans issues or if that was normal lol
