For helping keep this great

Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 354 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 354 | I had the shift lever out of my 41 4-speed to install a rubber boot. Put it back in without changing anything or moving the truck. When I started out this morning it wouldn't go into 3d gear (I start out in 2d). Any ideas? Is it the reverse lock-out? I didn't have time to check much since I didn't want to be late for work. Thanks, HLW

Looks like you solved this urself appears the boot is somehow keeping you from engaging part of the linkage.
