Default trouble shifting in new hybrid

Well i got my B18c in my hatch with no problem. It runs great with no CEL's or anything. I took it out for a test drive, and I can't get it to go into first or second. Also, the whole shifter feels sloppy, and has more movement than stock . Did anyone run into this in the past? Im hoping its just me being stupid and tired putting something on backwards?

What linkage did you use? Does it have fresh, new bushings?

Sweet, isn't it great when you find a PIA problem and fix it.

The bitch pin is so simple, yet the cause of so many problems. Even a couple thousandths of an inch of slop and the problems begin.

It's always the bitch pin.
