Exclamation 1989 k2500 won't shift into park!!!

Hi there!

I just recently bought an 1989 chevy k2500.
Its an automatic transmission with 4x4.
It shifts into every gear fine but it won't shift into park! It feels like somethings jamming it???

Please help!

Set the ebrake and slide under the truck. Disconnect the shift cable from the trans shift lever shaft. Attempt to move the shift lever through each position. If each shift is completed the problem is in the shift cable or lever. If you still can't shift to park the problem is in the trans.
