Check the two fulcrum pins in the transmission. They could be loose, missing, or broken.

There are also several small pins inside of the transmission that can fall out of place. I think they are like set pins.

I've had both happen on track cars,I replaced the fulcrum pins with aftermarket steel ones, I have seen them also back off and completely missing.

The small pins inside was fixed by a mechanic friend -- so I don't know the details there.
