Yes, it’s not original. I’ll just leave the 1/2 alone. Seems to shift just fine in that orientation. Good eye on the reverse rod!

That configuration did not work the adjustable end hits the reverse lever

How should the 1-2 shift rod be ?

Wow you’re absolutely right haha! Problem is fixed no more binding. Sometimes you just need an extra set of eyes.

It doesn’t fit in that orientation. The adjustment hits the 1-2 rod

Here are a couple of photos I snapped

Without the rod attached it goes in and out of reverse perfectly. But once the shifting rod is attached, that is when there is a bit of binding and trouble going into gear. I will check the rods but the revers rod is very distinctive from the others on this set up

Yes, turned out to be multiple issues as i mentioned above. The car shifts perfect now and down shifts just as well. If I do have issues in the future I will definitely open it up and check exactly what you mentioned! Reverse is still a bit sticky, I believe the rod is bent and pushing at a...

I will check for the spring and detent ball!

That’s a game changer, I had no idea they had these. I will put them in tonight. I found a pretty good deal on Amazon. Same day delivery https://a.co/d/bLqkcbm

Thank you, I will do just that. This shifter seems to be a universal shifter. I purchased it from an older Mopar buddy of mine. When I go to adjust the linkage with the Allen wrench my rods do not reach my linkage. I have had to connect them normally and make adjustments to shift into each gear...

Thank you, I will go ahead and order I will definitely have to play with the adjustment a bit more? I’m just not sure which gear or adjustment would prevent me from going into second. I very much so appreciate the advice.
