A shifting mechanism (12) for a mechanical transmission (10) having a plurality of selectable gear ratios, the shifting mechanism (12) comprising: a selector shaft (74,120) having a plurality of shift forks (68,70,72: 24,126,128,130) positioned thereabout, wherein rotation of the selector shaft (74,120) selects on of the shift forks and translation of the selector shaft (74) is operative to translate the selected shift fork to engage or disengage a selected gear ratio; a cylinder assembly (84,150) having a control rod (82,144) operatively associated with the selector shaft (74;120) to apply a force on the selector shaft (74;120) in response to movement of a gear shift lever (76), the shifting mechanism being characterized by the control rod (82: 144) being directionally coupled to the selector shaft (74: 120) for positive rotation therewith while allowing a predetermined relative axial translation therebetween, by the control rod being located within said selector shaft and by the cylinder assembly providing a fluid coupling therebetween in response to relative translation between the selector shaft (74:120) and the control rod (82:144).
