You will need to remove the boot and such to get to the base of the shifter. I have a 1990 and I had to remove 3 star bolts/screws on the base of the shifter. Once removed, the lever assembly pulled right out.
Been a while, but don't you Take the boot off inside to get to the shifter. It either has a locking ring that holds the shifter in or 4 bolts holding the shifter in. In either case, remove it and the shifter pulls out.
If it has 4wheel drive, put it in neutral on the 4wheel drive shifter and put the regular shifter in 4th gear, if not I cant help you.AnswerIf it has 4wheel drive, put it in neutral on the 4wheel drive shifter and put the regular shifter in 4th gear, if not I cant help you.

You may have to remove the shifter and realign forks in the top of transmission--problem usually caused by wear
if it's the Mitsubishi 5 speed,remove the shifter from the top of the tranny and look inside with a flashlight-there are three locks below on the passenger side that MUST be centered when you install the shifter(in neutral)
To check the fluids in a manual transmission you have to get under the vehicle and remove the fill plug on the side of the housing for a manual does not have a dipstick
in the console by the shifter
Are you talking about the manual 5 speed or the automatic trans? I you're asking about the 5 speed, it could be that the "shifter guide" in the top of the transmission box is either worn out or dislodged. A $5 part with a $250 labor bill. Yikes!
Most shifters are held in with retaining clips that you access through the top, around the shifter shaft.
1996 -1998 only
Yes, the transmission is the gear box.
