Been noticing a challenge getting it into 4th for about a week in my '75. Now, fully impossible. Where do I start looking first? Thanks.

Is the R & 1 gate all the way up or down in back at the transmission end?

Hi - could you please clarify? It shifts into R and 1-3. I took the linkage cover off at trans and everything looks connected there...but the play is really loose. This is my first time looking at this issue and not sure how much play is expected! Any additional info would be great! Thanks in advance.
