Default Trans issue help Houston

hey so i was drving from work today and my gear got stuck in 4th and had to drive like that for about 1 mile..
it usally grinds or pops when i go from 3rd to 4th... i try not to drive her bcuz i dont want to cause any more damage.. my setup is LS7 clutch & flywheel, pro 5 shifter new clutch master cylinder n slave cylinder and the drill mod.. so i have checked the fluid on the master cylinder and she is full... i am have to check underneath to see if the tranny is full.. but i was going to have the trans looked at but its hard to trust people now a days.. btw i am in houston.. i was going to call sixspeed inc but i read alot of bad reviews and heard they are closing or are closed.. who have yall gone to and can trust?

Your sticking in gear is prolly a worn 3/4 aluminum shift fork. The iron upgrade is the fix.
