Paul, not good.
1st, go under the bus and unbolt the linkage bracket that is the closest
to the tranny. It is on the passanger side near. Two 13mm wrenches are
needed. Now try to move the piece the goes INTO the tranny by hand. Try
to move it towards the REAR of the bus (which would be going towards
neutral). If you can't get it to move.....  pull the tranny and send it
in for a rebuilt. Pulling the tranny in a 2wd is very easy and can be
done with almost no fancy language tools and imported beer.
