OK. So im stumped. My transmission goes into 1st 3rd and 5th just fine, but 2nd, I have to put it into gear(or what should be in gear as far as the shifter's position, then wiggle it a bit and I feel it pop into place. Same goes for 4th and reverse is almost impossible. When I move the shifter to where its supposed to be in gear, I feel a bit of resistance as if something were stretching. I thought maybe the cables were binding but I checked all of the cables and they are fine. I'm almost positive its a problem with not the tranny itsself, but rather something before the cables meet the transmission because if I mive the levers on the outside of the transmission by hand, it goes into gear just fine. WTF? Do I need new cables? I'm stumped! Oh yeah, if I granny shift its usually ok, but shifting at higher RPM's is a no go. Also, when the car is at a dead stop, or turned off it goes into 2nd and 4th fine. TIA!

How much did new cables run you? Also, what are you opinions on the welded center diff? I've been thinking about getting the one that TRE sells. Right now, im looking at about $650 worth of tranny stuff for the rebuild.
