Have you checked the linkage adjustment? It could be out of adjustment.
Did you do anything to the tranny? Or did you just replace the rear main on the engine?

I just dropped the tranny to replace seal and put it back. No I can shift trough gears but it. does not move. With the rear end in the air I spin the wheel forward on one side and the opposite wheel spins the other way.

It is normal for one wheel to spin the opposite way of the other wheel when the car is in the air.
