Hi there,

I have been chasing down shifting problems in my car for a decade.

After a new gearbox, shifter, coupler, bushing, the only thing I have not replaced is the shift rod.

Anyone have one they are happy to part with, or know where I can source one?

I reckon fastback notchback squareback would all be the same. Feel inside the socket to see if it is excessively worn where the shifter ball rubs. If its not bad you'd be wasting your time. Or at lease you would know how bad yours is so that you dont buy another that is the same or worse.
