Looks like the old turtle van going to need a transmission. I'm having major trouble getting into 4th and sometimes 3rd gear. The linkage checks out. I removed the shift arm and tried shifting the trans. from underneath. Its very stiff like there is something jamming it up. If anyone has any ideas as to what may be the trouble or has a good used replacement, let me know. Thanks.
