Answer
Hello John,
    You may have to remove the shift tower assembly(the whole top plate of the trans.) and check for broken parts. As far as I know, everything you should need will still be available. The easiest way will probably to drop the crossmember out and lower the trans. down, but remove the actual shifter from inside the truck first. Hopefully you won't have to fully remove the transmission.
    Feel free to follow up and good luck.   Shaun.
