    Transmission rebuild fail

    So i rebuilt (seals) the manual transmission and put everything back carefully using reference photos i took while disassembling, tested shifting, put it up on the car and went to drive test it, put it on reverse and then 1st gear to get out of the driveway and everything was working fine, no weird sounds or anything, then as i was on 1st gear suddenly the transmission locked up and the car came to a stop in the middle of the road, the shifter was stuck on 1st gear but it came loose carefully, tried starting it up in neutral but it would stall when letting my foot of the clutch, i tried rolling the car to the side in neutral but it wouldn't move, it only moved while pressing the clutch.

    Really frustrating after putting so much time and effort into this, unfortunately ill have to remove it and disassemble it and see what happend.

    Any ideas what could've happened?

    Disassembled it today, nothing damaged thankfully, i guess the shift mechanism wasn't properly seated into the bell house however now, 4th gear keeps binding for some reason.
