well my truck wont shift into 1st 3rd or 5th. my stick shift bushing broke an i replaced it an it did not fix the problem. its like there isnt enough reach to go into gear. im wondering if my stick shift bent an cant make the travel to the upper gears. i took my stick shift out an i could shift into 1st 3rd an 5th with no problem with the other side of the stick shift. what do u think is the problem??


thank you a head of time.
