One other thing while things are disconnected. Move the rods going to trans by hand to check how they feel. There will be a slight amount of wiggle but if there is lost motion so you can move either rod to any extent in any direction check the bushings and rod ends for wear. If there is any slop in the detent so you can move the rod fore and aft before trans actually has resistance and starts to move into gear there is a possibility the detent is worn or loose. Any lost motion via the linkage is a known issue that could cause shift problems.
