If it looks anything like the mess on the '94 1500 I helped work on, either some All-Thread or fabricating a longer pivot arm is all that may be needed. That's all it looked like to me under there. I know the linkage allowed for some adjustment. Have you done any of that yet?

I went to a junk yard and got another shifter arm, it just screws on the linkage. I carefully cut the arm right above the threaded insert. Pulled the plastic rod out and welded in a 3 inch piece of 1/2 emt (electrical conduit), made a longer rod for the push button out of a welding rod. I then had to cut a wedge in it and bend the shifter back a few degrees to get it to go into 2hi.
If I were to do it again I would only use a 2 1/2 piece of emt as mine is almost too long.
