Thanks for replying......I'm in East Windsor, New Jersey (Central).
Unfortunately, I have no idea what is broken - his friend told him it must be the shift linkage since he can only get it into 1st and 4th. Not sure if they looked extensively for a cause.
Remove the center and u will see the 2 cables there thats where mine broke if those look good then look right on top of the tranny and see if those r connected
