Default 00 1500 transmission drives in neutral now after putting tranny back

ok I fixed the gas tank issue just stuck rtv sealant in that pipe


but I finally got the transmission back up into the truck and added about 7 litres of tranny fluid to the transmission


it didn't wanna go at first the tranny and when I shoved it in park engine stalled


started it back up ad stuck in reverse she started to move...


now sticking in neutral it drives forward.. in D 1 2 3 drives forward... in Reverse and N you can hit brakes and stops vehicle... in D 1 23 u hit brakes and it keeps driving the wheels.. and I'm still on stands ... so what gives here what the hell is wrong now.. that its now driving in neutral?

I had friend pop over and he said it will always run in neutral when its jacked up off the ground...


he held it and when I put in gear it didn't move but when you let go it started to move
but never tried reving engine

The wheels shouldn't move when in neutral and the brakes pressed...

And he is correct. Even though nothing is mechanically linked, there is still a bit of friction on all the parts in the trans, so, if there is no load, things will indeed spin.
