Ok, the problem with getting it into 1st gear sounds like the clutch isn't disengaging properly. Check the free play and adjust to 3/4 - 1".

The neutral problem could also be the clutch. Does it shift ok when the engine isn't running?

ok. i had another set of hands when i went out and got underneath the truck. i had my bro shift the gears while the truck was off. while i was under looking at the linkages 4rm the floor shift to the tranny. while he shifted from 2nd to 3rd. the rev. and 1st gear linkage moved also, so when tryin to down shift. the shifter wasnt sliding back into the hole it needed to be in the linkage 2 shift bak into neutral, 1st and rev.. i dont kno if that is the complete problem but it looks like to me. i havent driven it since the other nyte and tonight im goin to the cardinals and redskins game. so she'll jus have to sit another day. thanks ray for ur input. it is greatly appreciated n ill get bk to when i get her drivn dwn the street again
