I recently rebuild the tranny and it seems to knock in second gear. I can hear it when in drive at 25mph and when I put it in second. In first I don’t hear it. One other issue is now I can’t find overdrive and yes the linkage is hooked up correctly which is strange. I also adjusted the bands. Any advice is appreciated!

Sure its the trans?

Either way, it could be a busted flywheel or a torque converter on its way out, id lean toward the converter.

Break it right the first time. Fix it better the next time.
Are you sure you tightened the torque converter bolts?

The four nuts I put threadlocker on them and tightened them to 35ft lbs. I hear it in park at a certain rpm and mainly in second.
