maybe it is rubbing your exaust and it is hard to put in gear

 

what short shifter are you using, what exhaust, what car?

short shifters normally work by extending below (usally ~1") the normal pivot point. it'll reduce your shift throw (front to back) but increase distance sideways (left to right)
