    maybe pull the console cover and check the shifter mech, something must be binding, or maybe at transmission cable end there is mud/dirt build up not allowing full range of motion

    You may need a new neutral safety switch. Mine corroded and made it hard to shift a few years ago. Check on the right side of the transmission case (passenger side). [​IMG]Spray it around the nut in the middle and try shifting it between park an 1st and see if you gain travel. if so pick one up on Ebay.(around 23-70 bucks) Don't try to remove it unless you have a replacement ready. It might fall apart when removing and put your truck on the sidelines until you get a new part.
    Good luck,
    Dave
