stuck in 3rd

Hey all, My 3 spd on the floor is stuck in 3rd gear. I'm sure i couldn't be lucky enough to be just linkage? Any other ideas of what it might be would be great. The shift lever moves about an inch and i can't budge it anymore.

I'd sure give it a try under the truck, trying to tap the linkage to the neutral position. Remember to chock the wheels, or you will become the chock. My 3 spd on the floor sometimes hangs up in reverse. When it does, the shifter stick is in the neutral position. Takes about 30 seconds to fix, unless you are on a hill, then the linkage has pressure on it and you need to relieve the pressure
