If anyone has a factory shifter rod (with the ball joint and the joint seals in good shape, no tears) with undamaged top threads, please send me an email. It must be the factory rod (no replacements). Shifter bushings are not necessary if you don't have those. I broke my shifter rod while trying to remove the shifter knob. It sheared off at the rubber part in the middle when the knob got stuck and I twisted it too hard.
Thanks
