Just got a 2005 evolution 5speed with only 45k on it has few mods like ACT 6puck clutch, busher racing shifter bushings & tranny has no grinds. It wont let me put into 2nd gear with the car on or off. Feels like somthing is blocking it we checked the shifter box & cables all good.

 

Can you shift it when the cable are disconnect at the tran.

 

Maybe a bent shift fork?

 

I am gonna try it without the shifter cables on. But i was told could b the shift bracket on the tranny or that the busher racing bushing can make it hard 2 shift since metal bushings
