that goes into the side of the shift tower has broken off which allowsthe s=
hift lever to go past its normal range and disengage from its socket.This "=
tit" fits into a slot in the side of the big ball on the shift lever,contro=

 other, it comes out of the socket and flops around.Get a long bolt w/ the =
same threads as the broken one, check the overalllength, turn the end down =
so it will fit into the slot, and you are done. So, I followed those instru=
ctions and found the tits were worn and no longer fitting into the groove i=
n the ball. My friend the machinist was going to make new bolts, when we de=
cided to remove the thick lock washers and screwed bolts into the groove of=
 the ball.  With a little adjustment of the length of the bolt into the gro=

 and one know the length, and so on? As I looked on the Moss catalog, I not=
