Default Trans wont go into all gears

My friend and I assembled my gsr transmission for my car and put in a few new parts to it.
after it was assembled we made sure that it went through all the gears and it did.
After i put the trans on my motor and put it into the car it seems as if i only have 3rd and 4th gear and what feels like neutral isnt even neutral. I have the car up in the air and no matter what the wheels will not spin, it also will not engage reverse properly. Any comments or answer plz let me know I think we may have assembled it "in gear" and need to take it apart to get it correct.

You can't assemble it in gear. I'm assuming from your posts in the drag forum its a B trans. I'd look into the clutch system first. If its all good then pull the trans back out.

You didn't assemble it in gear, as like he said, internal shift mechanism transmissions like the B-series cannot be assembled in gear.

Did you have any hangups while putting everything back together?

Also, did you test that it had all gears before or after you had the shift detent ***** installed back into the casing?

And did you install new detent bolt washers? If not and you reused them, that can cause problems.
