Are you inserting a pin into the transmission to lock it into 4th when you are adjusting it? There is a plastic plug on top of the transmission that you pull out - it is about an inch long. Then you can insert a pin (~5mm allen key works well). Of course if your linkage is currently messed up, you will just have to move it around until you can get the pin in. Then you loosen the bolts and move the gear lever to 4th gear and insert a second pin inside the car to lock it in place. Re-tighten and there you go.
I actually just did this Friday night for much the same reason - I upgraded to the 9-3 linkage in my car and did not get that nut tight enough. It let things slip over time.
