sounds bad experience.

yes i contacted them within minutes of leaving the shop and have spoken with them twice since then. They think that it is something they have ran that is kinking the linkage or binding the pole from going into sixth. If i dont have it figured out by friday im taking it to them. Im meeting a guy tomorrow thats pretty sharp and should be able to diagnose the problem for me so they can't bs me on it. It honestly doesn't feel like a fork because everything else is smooth including reverse. If you watch under the hood while someone shifts inside, the hub tries to engage sixth but doesn't quite lift up high enough on its own if you give it a little help in the upward direction it will slide itself into sixth. Hopefully it just needs adjustment.

okay guys i fooled with the car tonight im still taking it back to the shop that did the work on friday. I can put the car into 6th from under the hood but still not from the gear pole. I fooled with the adjustment in the cab connecting to the pole and still no 6th. I still feel like something is just bent and nothing inside the transmission is jammed but i could be wrong. 1-5 and reverse are smooth as a babies bottom and under the hood you can see it try to engage 6th but the hub doesn't quite raise up high enough
