For alignment also make sure it is in Neutral, it is not in the pictures.
You should be able to manually rotate the shift drum and get it there, turn the drum counter clockwise while rocking the countershaft back and forth to align the dogs.

The shift drum is the round thing at the top right with the pegs that the arm turns

So I have been messing with it and I am still confused as to what happened..
How do I get the flywheel off without screwing anything up? And then what do I do to adjust whatever I need to..?

Thank you for your patience... I'm very new to this unfortunately, but I really want to learn.

Was the bike in neutral?

OP, did you read and study the linked threads?  Have you sourced at least one electronic or printed manual?  Do you have the proper tools to do the job?  The shifter adjustment is tricky to describe with words.  There is a newish tool to get the harpoon close to perfect without a lot of judgment.  Here's another set of pics to look at - don't worry the shifter mechanisms are all the same:  http://www.europeancycleservices.com/project-bikes/jasons-848/

I need the adjustment tool. I have been looking at the owners manual online and the parts one. It hasn't helped all that much.. Could you point me in the direction of the adjustment tool your talking about?

The shift linkage needs adjusting. There is a locknut and eccentric peg behind the flywheel.

Flywheel has to come off.

This job might be beyond the capabilities of your tool box.

I would be willing to buy the tools I need.. I just need someone to give me a link to them. I will need yalls help on it, but I am confident I can handle it as long as its just the adjustment.

The first video on my search...

And the part number for the tool is in the first post in BK856er's thread.

That should help me quite a bit. I will buy the tool, then give it a shot. I will start a new thread for everything else. Thanks guys, and please throw some words on the new thread when I start to do the actual adjustment!

I'm not trying to discourage you, I'm attempting to instill a problem-solving attitude. There''s an awful lot of info out there, don't expect others to find it for you. You have to evaluate all advice you get from the internet with the same filter. This is just a better place to start than most.

No need for a new thread.

This one will work fine.
