Subject:shift lever broke
From:Dave Stratton
Date:Thu, 12 Aug 1999 15:58:47 -0600

Well, about a week ago I was having trouble with wacking my knuckles on the
dash.  No longer! No shift lever. The blasted thing broke off above the
pivot, below the boot.  My feeling is that I should go with new.  Has anyone
had to replace this lever and done so with one from a wrecking yard?  Dealer
says he can have one in about ten days.  I don't really want to wait ten
days.  Any help or suggestions welcome.

By the way it was Per Lindgren who pegged the problem over a week ago.  I
should have listened.
