Have you tried with the shifter completely bolted back in? You picture above shows the shift lever without the lower boot and mounting flange.

When you suggest taking the control end assy apart are you refering to taking the pin back out and removing the block from the end of the control rod? I have not done that. I have taken both side covers off and the plug in the back and checked for obstructions and everything and then put them all back together. I don't see that I'm missing any pieces either. On the driver's hand side where the ball/spring/plunger piece is... Does the "plunger" piece neeed to be oriented a certain way? I didnt put any thought into this because i assume this piece's job is to center the shifter from 5/R which it does just fine.
In the last picture I posted am I missing something? I was thinking there was supposed to be something else there... this was completely apart when i got it and the factory service manual doesnt show a good parts break out for the shifter.
