Found out why I lost 1st & reverse & got lots of slop all of a sudden.....soft plastic bushings in the shifter u joint fell out after years of abuse. Anyone recognize this unit & who sells parts?

Find the parts that you need in the'73> area.
None of those parts are standard 6 |

How about this?
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-1143-1252212588_thumb.jpg) Yes, that is a steering U-joint. No plastic bushing, no cone screw, easy to disassemble, and you probably have one laying around in you rspare parts. |

looks like it has a side shift trans! Yup, that's the U-joint from a 73-76 side-shift linkage. You'll want the bushings for that. Press the pin in the middle out (careful with the cage, it's not super strong!) and place the bushings in from the inside. Then press the pin back in again. --DD |
