I happen to own a toyota tercel and i wanted to replace the transmission beacuse the old one had no reverse and could not shift into third gear

BTW, I was tired of always Pushing the car out of parking or hunting for slopy areas to park in so that i don't have to push the car backward or parking backwards (Which meant pushing the car backwards into the parking space in the morning) so that i get out of my parking space faster in the evening.

The guy at the junk yard asked me and my dad 200$ for a new tranny and 400 bucks just to install it, we paid the 200 and told him to get lost. We were able to remove the Old one and we have now run into problems

1. No transmission stand, We have to use jacks and improvised levers to try and place the transmission into place and it is not going so well.

2. I am tired and it is so cold these days that my nipples started lactating every time we go out to fix the car, We have lost some bolts and the new torque conveter is rusted out- i do not know if that will hurt, plus the small shifting lever that sticks out of the transmission
(New transmission!) was bent in a previous accident.

Please advice
