hi guys may i first say what an inforative and well run site this is, i only discovered it 2 days ago and alread have learned so much.
to my question - i was out in ormeou last weekend and got stuck climbing a hill and rolled backwards and stalled so i grabbed reverse to roll start except i accually grabed 4th accidentally... it grinded for a second then went into 4th and now it is jammed in 4th gear. i have checked the top bush and the round disk that sits under the gear stick ball and both seem to be in good conditoin leading me to belive that it is not them in this case. it seems that no amount of force i have applied so far will budge the gear shift. anyone got any sudgestions as to what may have happened?? also anyone got a second hand 5 speed for sale within 2 hours of robina gold coast?? any info would be greatly appreciated, again top site and great community here. thanks in advance!
incase you need to know its an 85 soft top with a 1.3 liter and a 1L transfer case apparently? cheers

Dose the car move at all?
kinda sound terminal, may be a busted selector, if 4th still move`s the car that is, if not i`d say it`s stuck in 2 gears... 2nd box hand sounds good.
