Check the back of yer trans case for a hole just behind and above the cover for the governor on the driver's side. The cover is like a small round hat. The pin you have most likely came out of that hole and it serves as the pivot pin for the parking pawl. The pawl has dropped down so putting the pin back in the case will not correct it. You will have to drop the pan to do that. In the meantime cork up that hole with something to keep water and crap out of yer trans and the ATF in it.

when i read this i thought i had the same problem happen to me my 91s10 blazer lost park. my linkage was so loose it just dint work it had a pin i think it was about a half inch around but i could be way off

take a look at your linkage wile your under there just hope thats it, took me 2 minutes to fix it

Backncardr has answered a lot of automatic transmission questions on here and he's always right on the money. great input! :grinpimp:

thanks Backncardr I found the hole where it gos, so you can get to the lever if you remove the pan? thanks again i was stumped!!! :)

Yes, drop the pan, while your in there and be a good time to change out the filter. You will probably will have to drop the parking rod bracket-two bolts 15mm heads. Note the orientation of the bracket before you remove it. Make sure the parking pawl has not had the lug on the end broke off before you reassemble everything. Make note of any other crud in the pan-like clutch material fyi.
