Check the shift cables at both ends... at the shifter and at the transmission.

I discovered that the bits at the end of my shifter cables where they connect to the transmission had fallen apart... cheap plastic snaps. Some zip ties there put me back on the road without a problem.

I do hope it's not your transmission. I replaced that as well and it was $2200 installed for a used tranny (not new or rebuilt) at that.
