Default Losing 2nd

Well my wife had an incident in my car that broke the torque arm mount and then the reverse lockout solenoid, I just got done repairing that damage and now the car keeps popping out of 2nd gear, it never did anything like that until now anyone know why it would do that?

Are you sure the engine and trans mounts are in good shape? If the trans isn't mounted securely it can make it pop out of gears. Next step would be to remove the trans and inspect the internals for damage.

All of the mounts seem to be in good condition

Sounds like it's time to pull it and inspect the internals then.
