Exclamation Can't get reverse......??

I seem to have a problem getting my escort cosworth 4x4 into reverse gear,
1,2,3,4 and 5 are working fine, just can't get reverse?
I have tryed it when the engine is off and it still won't go in.

I have been told it might be the gear selector?
If it is, this any idea where I can buy one from, and is it a nightmare to fit?

any info will be appreciated guys

Cheers

it could be the spring on the gate inside the box they are really weak and prone to snapping.
