If this is a pick up truck, check the shift selector cable for rot damage under the drivers side floor mats.
Assuming you're driving a car with a manual transmission, the problem may be worn shifter linkages. Does it tend to pop out of some gears more often than others? While in gear, does the shifter feel loose with lots of free play? You'll have to check the linkages between the shifter and transmission to id Save entify worn bushings to be repaired/replaced.
No, they are totally different hardware internally.
Depending on make model and type of play. Very often, there are bushings in the linkages shifter to transmission. You will probably need the car in the air, or jacked high enough to get under it. Dealer part, or may be found at some hardware stores.

Put transmission in third gear, loosen locknut on cam adjuster, turn adjuster screw whichever direction is needed to center shifter pawl by feeling for equal free play and spring pressure when moving shift lever in both directions. Tighten locknut. If you still have shifting problems, check for correct clutch adjustment, proper amount of primary oil (one quart), warped clutch plates or a bent shifter fork.
yes you can do this yourself by taking out the shifter and cutting it shorter with a saw. but then you will need to re-thread the shifter in order to screw a knob on. unless you have a knob that attaches itsself to the shifter with screws on the side. this is a ghetto way of doing it, but will work. or if you have $100-$200 to spend, simply buy a cimplete new short shifter off ebay, or anywhere and install it yourself which is a pretty simple job. take off the dash surrounding the shifter by popping it outwith a flat-head screw driver or your fingers. unattach the shift boot (the leather-like material surrounding the shifter. from here, you will be able to see the top of your transmission, where the shifter goes in. unscrew the plate on top of the transmission, and slide out the whole shifter. simply repeat this process in reverse to install your new aftermarket short shifter, making absolutely sure you are putting in the white plastic bushing at the end of the shifter that goes into the transmission, which ensures that it is secure and there is no play in the shifter.
Check rubber motor mounts and transmission mounts first. sounnds like there play in something definatly check the mount if there good then it might somehting worn in the tranmission.
If you're talking about the length of the driveshaft, the front yoke should go into the transmission all but 1 inch.
Most likely cause is that you have a bad shifter module, which is the shifter itself. I've seen lots of these, try and play with the shifter to get it out of park, and make sure you have the brake pedal depressed. If you can get it out of park take it to a repair shop this way, and leave the shifter in neutral if you have to turn the car off, that way you can still start the car, and still move the shift lever to drive.
Check your email, before you play it.
If the linkage is not loos or damaged, check the linkage bushings for wear. If the bushings are not worn and the linkage is properly adjusted then the problem is internal. the shifter bushings, rods and shifter forks are probably worn and need replacing.
