Here is a mock up photo of my trans in the car along with my trans and shifter assembly. I know these are not 100% correct parts. But this is what I did and everything clears and works just fine. The bracket that holds the reverse lockout rod put the rod too close to the shifter handle. I fabricated a new bracket to kick the rod out 1/2“ All the photos I have with a boot had a separate hole for the rod to pop through.
