shifter sucks!

Post by BiffTirkle »

so after i replaced the cab mounts i drove the truck around yesterday all day. it was awesome! no more rocking no more crunching and squeaking noises. but my shifter sucks.

so at some point the past someone put a 3 speed top loader in. not sure what kind of shifter it is but it sucks. the linkage isnt binding its got to do with the shifting mechanism itself. its old, beat up and worn. so does anyone have any suggestions on an affordable 3 speed shifter?
