    3rd picture bottom right is that flat on both sides. Looks like a broken shift fork. Any body else want to name that part?

    It looks like it may have been flat at one time. the metal making up these parts is quite thin, perhaps a sheet or three of parer thick. If that helps at all. Do you happen to have a picture of a shifter fork in non mangled form? i couldn't find one in the manual.

    you can look in your trany for the shifter. It's connected to one of the rods. It's a cast part. Just hit the shifter and you will see one move.

    i'm thinking shift fork as well. my buddies toyota got stuck in first gear not to long ago while we were playing in the snow. when we pulled it apart, the same thing happened, metal chunks fell out. turned out to be a broken shift fork.

    Okay finally found the time to work on it again, Sorry about the wait. Tail is pulled, couldn't find anything obviously wrong. Here is a video if you can point out whats not working properly.

    You can upload 15 minutes of video on youtube. You scanned over the trans so fast we can't really see any detail. Pan over things slow, real slow. Also the LED flash light makes it hard to see. Can you use a regular quarts halogen drop light? Then turn the output shaft after shifting it into a gear. We need to know what gear makes it lock up. Use the manual listed above to figure out what gear is causing it. When it's in neutral can you hold the output shaft and rotate the input shaft? The only time a trans will lock up like that is if it shifts into 2 gears at once.
