Auto not going into park?

Trans will not go into park. We took the shifter cable off and used the linkage on the trans itself. Linkage will go past Reverse, but when you let go, it will pop back into reverse.

Any ideas on what to look for? Taking tranny apart tonight. Thanks

PS Trans is a TH350 from a 77 Impala/Caprice

This may sound stupid and I don't mean it to. When you did this did you try turning the driveshaft? The linkage won't go in if the parking pawl isn't lined up with the tooth in the rear ring gear.
