On my NBS I had my shift lever on the trans get bent so bad it wouldn't shift at all. But that was due to the front driveshaft breaking after I got my blower installed and it also took out the oil filter and a piece of the pan so without oil in the engine I wasn't really going anywhere anyway.I was getting my front windows re-tinted and the car got stuck in neutral. The damn lower gear selector cable bushing broke. Luckily there was a mechanic shop next door he was able to pop it back on to shift it in gear and move it over to his shop. He ordered a new selector cable but won’t be ready until Monday afternoon. Anyone else have this issue before?

You had me at " crossing a stream in a swamp" ! I knew it was going to be a good story at that point.Got it dirty! Took my girls into the woods where I used to hunt. KO2s pretty much negated the need for 4WD until we were faced with crossing a stream in a swamp. My kids tossed rocks into the water and said they could see them on the bottom. I kept asking about the black section and the elder of the two said she could see the bottom and her rock. A tracked vehicle had recently gone through this way so the kids hopped back in and I put the truck in 4HI.
Moved out cautiously but not too slow to get stuck, into the water she went, going good and the front end nose dives, water washes over the hood and onto the windshield! I hit the brakes and move the shifter so fast I stuck her in park and not reverse! Heart racing, my wallet is crying and I try to put her into reverse and jam the selector down into M5, screw it, and floor it, not knowing whether or not it was a good idea! The tires dug in and the nose came up and the truck powered right up and out of that crossing like nobody's business! Thank you Lord and GM Arlington!
I'm shaking, cussing, sorry Lord, and now on a 6 foot wide trail with a 7 foot wide truck. Warnings start buzzing, my daughter left her seatbelt off, whew! A message pops up on the DIC to check my trailer wiring! Motor a little shaky for a moment and then resumes purring like a kitten. Took about a mile of being beaten with branches to turn around. Kept going past where we sank and found a better crossing to get back to the main grade and over to my favorite campground to unwind and have some breakfast, heart still racing, hands still shaking.
My youngest was sitting next to me and her first thought when we nose dived was that the shovel we brought along was not going to save us! LOL
