    I have an 84 e30 so the two bolts that go into the shift plate and into the tranny are really close to the selector rod and selector shaft. Like you know how you can feel the grooves going into gears, 2nd and 4th feels like just a wall. I can pull back and slide it from 4th to 2nd and not be engaged in gear. Really irritating.

      Sounds like your shifter is not lined up in the tunnel. Probably sitting too far back not letting you get into 2nd & 4th

                    I didnt ask. I just want the shell. Shoot him a text, he sounds pretty set on wanting to part it out though.

                                Nope, just redid the bushings and seals with the old shifter. Still won't go into 2nd or 4th. Had a friend shift while I looked at the shifter and it looks like everything is clearing. Doesn't make sense if my selector shaft is broken because it can still go into all the upper gears, R, 1, 3, 5. Honestly at a loss right now and am about to just drop the damn tranny and open everything up.
