Well we took the GTX out for a ride today. Just might be the last one for the year. Coming home from a friends & down shifted to 2nd gear to turn on to another road. What the H*** the shifter is in the neutral position but the trany is stuck in 2nd. There is a noise coming from the throwout bearing area. Had to drive home in 2nd Not fun lol
 
PA. weather?!!! Worn synchros,bushings? All the time in the world coming up to figure it out. Sorry about that.
 
Sounds like my old worn out Mr Gasket shifter that I tossed during my restoration.. Lots of wiggles and you'd get it back where it belongs..
 
I broke a synchro strut in my Challenger a few years ago. Popped the lip of the end allowing the strut to slide out of the synchro hub/sleeve about 1/8". This failure kept it stuck in gear. Replaced the strut and it was fixed, but the trans had to come completely apart.
