no it wont let me even go into it, i pull it back, but it wont let me go any further, and it was working fine last week, though, the other day i did accidentlly shift into reverse while driving, and the engine just died instanly, pulled over and all was normal, so dont think that matters.

Sounds like linkage is shot. Take a look down by the T-Case on drivers side look for anything abnormal next to the frame and body.
