Ideas or known resolution to "soften" the shifter up? It sticks and I'm afraid I'm going to break it.

I haven't pulled it out of the cab yet.
 
upright version??? sounds dumb but mine freed up alot when i cleaned it. i used tire shine on the cab all on the shifter.. i guess it sunk in and acted as lube because my shifter is much smoother now.

if its real bad you might want to take the time to pull it apart clean and lube.. you would be amazed at the ammount of krap that builds up in those..
 
I had the shifter sticking on my upright Race Drivin. I took the shifter out of the machine, and took it apart to clean it. It was rediculous how much gunk was in there! After being cleaned, it worked like new!!

Yeah, it's an upright. Man they really make it hard to get into the things. I'd like to pull the bottom back piece of wood off but it seems I'll have to destroy the thing to get it off.

I'll pull the shifter and see whats clogging it up.

Thanks
