Sooooo, you can depress the clutch pedal and shift freely in all gears?????When you are in any gear and let up on the clutch pedal, nothing happens?

Need input

Broken gear selector or shift fork. Your transmission is stuck between gears (more than likely 3rd and 4th). Either gt anothr transmission or get it repaired.

what the hell happened here!?

I go away for less then 2 days and this thread turns into ... well something bad!

But yeah...i was jsut making sure cause an ebrake can stay on even if the handle goes down. dragged my car halfway around the backyard with a blazer before the ebrake shoes let go. Stupid drums.

I dont drive an S chassis.I rock the KN13 chassis, and im in dire need to convert to rear discs.

but disc pads can still get stuck on, especialy if they sit and rust while contacted (like if the brake is left on). try rocking her or tapping the caliper (LIGHTLY) to see if she loosens up.

Sorry, I didn't look at your info before I stated that. It was also late last night and I was tired. I can come up with more lame excuses if you'd like....
