It feels like it's jamed. only goes in low range and the netural light stays on. won't go inhigh or reverse. the shifter works I un bolted the 2 arms and it shifts fine.Could the rear end be frozen? Any body else had this problem? It worked when I took off when I got stuck and was shifting back and forth it got jamed and wouldn't shift any more.

Hey jeff, I just had a similar problem with mine.. I adjusted the two linkage arms. If you get both of the them in the right place, at the same time, it will free up.. Mine, shifts better now, than it did, when I got it.. You just have to play with it.(patiently)
