It sounds to me as if the cable isnt adjusted properly. I would check with the shop that put the tranny in and see if they could check the adjustment on the cable, more than likely when they put in the new trans they didnt bother to adjust the cable for the replacement transmission

    Not particularly, its just called a shifter cable

sounds like the cable from the gear stick to the gearbox selector switch has been put on wrong ,put the car into reverse so that the reverse light is on , turn the ignition off and find the gear selector on the gearbox , pop the end of the cable off it then put the gearstick into the "R" position and refit the end of the cable back onto the selector switch , hope this helps

1999 Chevy Tahoe will not go into park at all all other gears work but feel loose

there is adjustment down on the ******. I will send you a picture, what you will need to do it put on the e brake,and block the tires. on the drivers side of the ****** the shift cable is located, pop off the cable from the arm and pull the white clip, when push the arm foward that is park,and then easily pull the cable to the arm and put back the white clip10_30_2012_8_31_59_am.gif

Everytime I put my car i park it goes into reverse.

It sounds like you have a damaged shifter cable.It is an adjustable cable but if it is that far out of adjustment then it is probably damaged. Replace it.

Tahoe is stuck in drive. The shifter moves freely but the indicator stays on drive and tahoe would go in park or reverse.

On my 93 S-10 Blazer there is a small cable that goes from the shift lever to the gear indicator. As you shft gears it pulls the indicator with it. that cable may have come off or broken.
