Wow, you had the tranny all apart and could not find anything? Sounds like the shift body might have a broken spring or some other problem like a stuck piston or an occluded passageway. And it could also be a speed sensor issue.

Vehicle Identification Number. It is composed of 17 letters and numbers and is a sticker visible on the drivers door "B" pillar, and on the very top of the dash board right up next to the windshield there is a metal plate. It is also on the registration card.
