I rebuilt the clutch for 1987 Dodge Ram PU, 3.7l, st 6. Now my gears are lock or stuck in gears? The gear shifting is locked in gear, cannot go into gears?
SOURCE: Hard Clutch and 1st and 2nd Gear Shifting is hard
The clutch bearing is supposed to have a groove on the inside where it slides on the shaft That groove is supposed to have a heavy grease applied to it to prevent the bearing running dry on the collar it slides on.Regardless of your driving style, that grease is intended to remain there for the life of the clutch, (generally every clutch I have ever replaced still had some remaining lube there unless the bearing itself failed from a material defect which caused it to overheat and cause that grease to then run out of the retaining groove) I'm not there and can't see the old parts, but in my opinion the first clutch may have failed partially because of your lack of skill in using a stick shift vehicle but the second failure obviously is not your fault if the information you have posted is correct.
Good luck

The last time this happened to me, the clutch cable had worn through the out cable housing and had to be replaced.

This is not a permanent fix, but you'll be able to shift and drive...this is a "safety feature" when you're break lights aren't working...it may be a fuse issue, i found that didn't help either.
How to drive it while it's "broken" On the top left of your gear shift is circle that looks like a button that is only 3/4 there...see picture (it's circled in red)
pry that off with a key or something... now restart your car, push on the break and at the same time insert a key or something into the now open hole...while pushing down use the other key to shift into reverse. You will need to do the same thing to shift back into park.
Good heavens that is the most inneficient safety feature I've ever heard of. How about instead of leaving the car immoble and keeping you in a scetchy neihborhood to get mugged they just "invent" a warning light notification. grr

Safety switch located under the gear stick mechanism inside the car.Needs replacement.
SOURCE: Gear shift is locked. we can only shift the car
The automatic transmissions on these vehicles are known to die early in
the life of the car and Volvo is well aware that the vehicle has a dud
auto transmission. The symptoms you have mentioned are an indication
that the transmission has had it. It's basically just running in limp
mode now.
You don't say what mileage this vehicle has clocked up but even low mileage vehicles have had to
have the entire transmission replaced due to failures like yours. You
also, no doubt, have a transmission alert showing on the dash.
The
bad news is that a replacement automatic transmission will now be necessary
and this will be costly. Even then, with these cars, you could experience another
transmission failure after just another 30000 miles or so of driving.
