So I was on my way home tonight and came off the highway and stopped at a stop sign. When it was my turn to go my shifter wouldn't go left or right to get into 1'st 2'nd 5'th or reverse.... So I had to do a third gear pull.... As I continued home I got 5' th and reverse but still no 1'st or second. I jacked up the front end and couldn't visually see anything that didn't look normal with the. Linkage and the fluid is still full but after I set it down off the jacks I got all my gears back..... Does this sound like a clutch issue or something else..? Note I've never had any issues like this before...

sounds like a transmission issue. Not being able to go left or right is pointing towards the gear selector inside the trans

Is it normal for the gears to come back like that though?

stock clutch? I bet the springs on the clutch hub fell out.

pull the tranny off and inspect the clutch and tranny.

It's either a shift linkage issue or the shift forks inside the tranny. Why would the clutch/throw out bearing cause an issue like this?
