Ken,

You had the same weekend I did. I also had this happen this weekend a few times. I already have the small curved "lockout tab" for lack of better term on the shifter. I had this 2nd to 1st problem last year which is when I sent the shifter to Long for a rebuild and the "lockout tab". I took the trans out today and everything inside is A.O.K. I must say it is really an neck snapping experience the first time you go from the top of 2nd back to first. I had this happen three times this weekend and I am not too happy with the shifter at the moment. I am calling Long tomorrow (Tuesday).
