Sorry about the dirt and grease. Been parked for a few years in the dirt. Luckily I have not pulled the engine yet. The adjustment is correct in this pic (yellow), was shifting fine. That is your up and down. The side to side will get the paddle at the end of the ball far enough to the left to reach 4-5th gear, paddle needs to push the cage over. But move it too much and say goodbye to 1st- R. I would loosten the fasteners on the mount so with a bump of a rubber mallot it would move but not so loose I'd lose the adjustment I had on up and down. Real small moves till you have it.
I hope this makes sense
