I have a 1500 four wheel drive. I just got the transmission rebuilt, and brand new torque converter. It catches reverse but does not catch any forward gears. Am I missing a vacuum or something?

Good morning

No, this is an electronic transmission application of forward and reverse is mechanical, not electrical. The electrical controls the shifting.

It sounds like the forward clutch is not applying or the sprag may be the issue.

No matter what, the transmission will have to come out and be reopened to find out why it will not apply.
