My MD transmision is stuck in 4th gear while the gear shifter is in the neutral position, what steps do I take to fix the problem(s).
Thanks

Jesse: When you remove lever as Alton has suggested, and then line the rails up. The end of you shift lever should be built up with weld until it just nicely fills the notch on one rail. The finished lever should have a rectangle shaped end very slightly rounded on corners. I like to get these just a bit over size and grind until it shifts smoothly. It takes a little time and patience. If you don't build it up it will just do the same again. If you happen to be shifting on the move and it stays in 4th and also goes into 3rd and you happen to drop clutch out, you will most certainly do damage. I had this happen once, result 4 gears with broken teeth and one bent shsft. Don't fool around with this.

Sounds like your shifter has slipped out of shifter rails. Remove the lever by removing the pin at the bottom of the shifter rod (not pin at spring on shifter lever) pull out shift lever and take a pry bar of some king and align the notches up and replace the shift lever in the notched. repace pin. There is a cap over the pin to keep it in place remove this with small pointd punch. You can get new caps at NAPA or the dealer.
