Stuck In 5th gear

Well i Bought a 97 2500, 5.9, 5 speed, 4x4. Driving home about an hour and half from the house the transmission stuck in 5th gear. Pulled on the shifter and the shifter came out of gear but the tranny is still in 5th. I can feel 1-4 but cant even get over to 5th. Anyone else have this problem?

Betting the shift fork for 5th broke or came off somehow.

Probably will have to drop the TC and tailhousing, hopefully wont have to go any further.
