Sounds like the linkage is wrong to me. Either adjustment or your linkage rod to the trans is the wrong length. Oh ccheck for anything that would be opstructing the linkage too. Please admit defeat and let us know what you find.

As for the clicking between gears thats the trans. However the column will have detents so that you will have to pull the shift lever towards the driver to move from park to reverse, pull towards you to move the shifter from neutral to reverse or park. As for having 4 positions for forward gears I hope there is enough range or movement available in the column. Maybe someone could chime in that has had this experience. For mine I just got the OD shift indicator to swap out. If there is more I'm sure we would all like to know.
