Trans linkage problem

Looking at you photo again.

The rod you are holding is backwards. The red circle goes into the trans selector.

The green z bar might be backwards left to right or upside down?

Also be sure you are attaching the gear selector to the correct lever on the trans.

I don't think the Z bar is messed up, though it could be, I haven't touched it since I disconnected the linkage from the 904. Also I do have the gear selector on the bottom lever, and I believe even if I flipped it around I think it would still be too long. Tried the 904 selector but it doesn't fit the lever on the trans.
