is there some trick on geting into first ? i can get into first fine when i first start the truck , but once i've been driving a while and shifting through the gears it gets hard to get it into first when you come to a stop . i normally have to mess with it for a few seconds before it eventually goes into first . it's not really a transmission problem , i just can't always get the lever to come forward and down . normally only after i've been in second , i guess when it goes forward into second it's getting hung up on the way back to first . is there somewhere to adjust this ? or am i just doing something wrong ?
