Hello all, I have a strange problem with my 3-speed floor shifter. I recently un-bolted the steering column to replace the brake booster. I did not remove the column from the car, nor did I disconnect anything from the column, other than the column-shift linkage. I replaced the column and all components exactly as I had found them, and now my floor shifter does not work properly. I can go down in gears, from park to reverse, neutral, 3rd, 2nd, however it will not go down to 1st. Upon moving the shifter back up in gears, the transmission does not shift. I found that I had a snapped shifter cable, and I replaced the cable. The new cable made no difference, and the new cable snapped as well. I have honestly no idea what happened, and I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar problem or if anyone could help me out.
Another problem is that the shifter is way off when it was working, i.e. reverse is really in the large space between Park and where reverse should be. I have a crappy picture here:
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated
