I recently changed the pilot bearing, flywheel, clutch & housing on my 88 RX7. Upon reassembly I noticed I cannot access 5th gear and reverse which both on the right side of the shifter. I had a mechnic replace all the rings and gaskets in the shifter but it still will not shift to 5th or reverse. Not sure how or what I /we screwed up when I/we did this job. Any advice would be a great help.

If the linkage is working correctly. Then the shifter rail inside the trans has an issue.

If I remove the Trans. Will I have to dismantle it to correct the problem or is it something I can correct from the outside? Any reading or videos I can view?
