try to put it into first with out the clutch (do not force just tap it ) if it grinds it is the sinkroll,if notthing happens then that means your sink is good so then try this, put it into a diffrent gear if it does not go into any gear then i would have to say it is you clutch so buy a new one. let me know what happens.

You're the one that posted about not making a "Type R" because it had a sticker on it. Please end yourself for saying what you said on this thread. Good day.

Now, for the issue on hand, we need more information. Did you force it into any gear without pressing the clutch or did you hear a grind? Can you place it on 1st gear (position)?

First: Ditch your "gurl" if she can't handle a downshift.

Second: If I understand you correctly you tried putting it into 1st while rolling? Many people say it won't let you if you are rolling more than 10mph, mine won't let you do it if you're moving at all. Don't force it in, just slow as much as possible and ease it into 1st.

Third: Grammar owns you.

Well we had a flood down here a few months ago and I definitely submerged the linkage under (pretty much doorline submerge). The next morning the linkage was stuck and coudn't get into any gear. After moving it a bit and rolling backwards, it came loose. I guessed the bushings seized.

do you happen to have a short shifter...i read somewhere on here that some shortshifters (if it cost less than 30 dollars...) dont line up 100% or cause excessive wear...
