Unless you have owned the car since it was new you don't know what might have been done to the shifter. You are going to have to have a look at the shifter to see what the problem is.The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

Motor/trans mounts could be sheared and the engine moved. Just going to have to crawl under and take a look at everything.Comment

From the bottom everything looks to be where it should be. Nothing hanging down or anything. Warning noob question. Can you attack all this from the top or do you have yo drop the trans down?alcoholics do it till you barfComment

Work on the shifter is done from the bottom. It helps to unbolt the transmission brace, support the transmission with a jack, and lower the rear of the transmission.The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
