hi
raise rear tires and rotate drive shaft slowly while installing valve body park rod .
when park paw drops in a notch the rod will slip in !

That helps, and it is a little off from where you think it is. I wrap front end of shaft with length of wire and use screwdriver to guide into shaft. Use feeler gauge the hold spring and accumulator in place while installing VB. Use a pan bolt to hold feeler gauge in place. With wire and screwdriver can get rod into lever. A pair of needle nose pliers holding clip will help. Tie a piece of thread on E clip, so when you drop you can find.
