Update: I have discovered if i finesse it i can upshift through all gears, but i cannot downshift into second and cannot go into reverse, any ideas? Please?

Re: Shifter issues 88 4WS

the cables are adjustable. just adjust them. also verify that they are connected properly at both ends

Actually I was spot on, the cable had worn through the steel braid and was kinked and bound up. Pulled a set out of a 1990 Lude in a junkyard and it is back to 100%.
