Galion T500A grader hi-low range shifting problem

[Cablespinner]

I recently purchased a Galion T500A grader and the hi-low range shifting cable was stuck. I removed it from the shift linkage on the transmission and shifted it into hi range by hand to get it home. Now that I have bought a new shift cable I can't get it to fully engage into low range. It lacks about 1/4 inch going all the way in. Anyone have thoughts as to what the problem is?

Thanks,

Usually the power transmission cables have lots of adjustment on them and the linkage that it connects to itself usually has some sort of adjustment (not always). If the adjustments can’t fix it,the cable may have been made incorrectly.

I have plenty of adjustment in the cable, but I can't even manually get it to go the rest of the way in.
