Perry,
Jack the front or rear of the car up and support it, crawl under it with
a light and a pair of channel lock pliers a 9/16 wrench and a pair of
needle nose. The 3rd 4th shift ear is the farthest forward on the tranny
the reverse is in the middle and 1st second is the rear one. make sure
reverse and 1st 2nd are centered and not partially engaged as this will
lock the shifter. If you wiggle 1st/2nd and rev you should be able to free
up 4th. Good luck.
