Hey Everyone. Today I went to go run a few errands, and got about a block away from home when the shifter literally fell off. I went to bring the truck into neutral and then into second, but when I went into neutral the shifter bar just fell off in my hand. no force was used at all. upon inspection, it seems it was only holding on by the thinnest bit of metal, and the bar was cracked I guess for some period of time. long enough to begin to rust a bit.
Anyway, I pushed it home (it was in neutral) and welded it back on. it's a temporary fix, but it seems to be holding okay.
Has anyone had this happen before? or heard of this?
How do I replace the lever? I popped the boot off the tunnel, but I can't see how the whole thing comes apart to replace it.
I have not had time to search, or look at the green bible, but any help is appreciated in the meantime.
