If the car is in neutral, and you let the clutch out and the clutch grabs, then the tranny is stuck in 1-5 or reverse.

I think we already mentioned about looking underneath at the shift shaft, and axle pockets. Have you done this?

Based on your description, I don't think it's your clutch or diff, I think it's either your linkage, or something internal in the gearsets.

Either way, if it's the clutch, the diff, or the gearsets (forks or whatever), then the tranny has to come off. You gotta see what you are up against so you can go from there...

the shift shaft looked fine and i can move the shifter from side to side. It has been suggested to me that it could be a peice of a gear that broke off (dad says tranny got sluggish earlier and he forced the issue) and is now wedged in the gearset. Possibility?

It sounds like maybe you could have chipped a gear slightly.The burr could cause too much binding which would stall the car.Whatever it is,something is binding.Don`t force anything because it could blow a sprocket and you don`t wany pieces going around.
