What is the history of the transmission? Did it work before rebuild?

If the gears on the sun and planetary gears are good, I' thinking there is something wrong with the way the lock-out shaft and parts are assembled. You said earlier that you could hear clicking with the engine running in reverse. If part #14 on the shaft is bent (not 90 degrees from the shaft) it can't push the sun gear far enough, or if the shaft doesn't move the #14 part. It has been a long time since I was in an OD, so my memory isn't clear.
