I am putting my linkage back together after a very, very  long time and seem to be having some difficulty.

  It is an 87 2wd. When I put the ball into the socket on the shifter and  attach the bracket to the tranny it looks right. I then shift into  first and the ball comes out of the socket and is wedged and will not  shift again until I disconnect the linkage from the tranny. (I know  there is a more technical name for these but they are sort of the same,  lever (ball) and shift lever (socket))

  It's like the socket does not sit high enough and as it goes to the  rear of the van it sort of slides right out. I can't do anything about  lowering the ball, it only goes on in one location and is not  adjustable, and I dont see any way of raising the socket.

  It must be an alignment issue, so what am I over looking?

  thanks

  peter
