Drop the exhaust, heatshields. You may need to drop the driveshaft to get to the shift linkage if you have large beefy man-hands.

If its just the selector rod you can probably get it hooked back up without dropping the driveshaft or exhaust.

Thats right and it will be PITA. My pin on the tranny side of the rod came out when I was driving and it was stuck in 3rd. I managed to do it on the side of the road with the stock jack and my spare tire as a support in case it fell.
