I may Have a major F.U.B.A.R

Everyone,First,,,,,, I have no clue on internals of a tranny. I took lots of pics to try and help out for anyone that can maybe come to conclusion so far. The pan is off and filter. It looks clean inside. The only thing i could feel or see was the one part circled in pics. It seems out to far and loose. Im not possitive on the torque converter all i know its a six cyl. one and it looked just fine. I have had the Dart for over 5 years and having a bit of a struggle remembering everything.Im not sure if any of these pics can help but its a shot. Thanks in advance, Edd / Nite moves:sad:

Hey Edd, it looks like you might be onto something there! That has definitely popped out of place and would explain a few things, like the problem with it sticking when moving the shift lever from park as well as why you only have one gear. Get that back in place and you might be good to go!! :burnout:
