Type 9 transmission issue

[Ted7]

Just got the 7 back after a long story you don't want to know about. Transmission has been rebuilt but it's super hard to shift and the shifter is all the way to the left under the 1st gear. It moves freely to the right but if I move it slightly to the right it's going immediately back to the left. Finding 3rd or downshifting is almost impossible. Check the video and let me know what you think is wrong.

I'm no expert but doesn't seem right.

I suspect the 5th gear locking plate is out of adjustment. It is located on the right side of the trans about six inches fwd of the shifter and at the same height, so adjustment in the car should be easy with the tunnel cover removed. Nothing needs to be removed from the trans to make the adjustment. The two bolts on the plate are loosened so the plate can slide fore-aft, the shifter knob is deflected (normal shifting effort) to the right in neutral, and the bolts are snugged to 17 ft lbs.

Thanks, I'll transmit the message to my mechanic! Hopefully this is what it is, it (c)(sh)ouldn't be broken since it's a fully rebuilt transmission.
