I have a 98 silverado 1500 4x4, 5.7 engine with the 4l60e transmission. I got the truck with the gear shifter arm broken off and a bad starter. I had it brought home on a flatbed wrecker. To get it in neutral, we just used the cable that was on the broken shift mechanism and it shifted that way pretty good. I replaced the gear shift mechanism and truck (not running) shifted through the gears just fine. I put a starter on it today and got it running pretty good. I was going to run it down the road and it would not shift out of park. I got under the truck and took the linkage cable off the arm on the tranny. I wanted to see if i could move the shift arm on the transmission itself. Its stuck? I cannot move the lever at all. Any ideas what the problem could be?
