1st, 'i' would have a helper,move the shift lever-p-r-n-d-2-l-L.
& you,or some one that understands what 'should be happing,
watch the trans-shift arm.
post back- if the trans selector lever/arm is moving,as with the selections,

that 'aint' gona be a cheap repair.
but even with the chutch pack galleded/welded together.
the park pawl/gear should not allow it to go foward in 'park'if you are involved in this repair/replacement- make sure the trans fluid-COOLER is cleaned properly.
