Default Lost 1st, 3rd, 5th & reverse!!! HELP

I don't know whats going on. All at the same time, I lost 1st, 3rd, 5th and reverse! 2nd and 4th works just fine. Its almost like something is just blocking it from going in gear. Its a stock T56 with a spec 2 clutch. Anyone have any idea whats wrong?

Haha, I got curious as to what was wrong with it. So I took my console apart and realized that my B&M shifter has a large hex head bolt in front and back of it for some reason. The one in front screwed in more from vibration over time, blocking the shifter from going into forward gears. Just glad it wasn't something screwed up! lol
