    Remove the cable ends from the linkage and try again. Then you will know if its the cables, or even gear lever.

    The main fault on these is the brass part of the bush gets seized onto the shift bracket pin with rust/corrosion.

    Removed the left cable and went side to side effortlessly . I think u could be right about the bush getting seized
