Plastic balls? I have balls of steel...well thats what they say.

I thought you were taking about the ball at the bottom of the shifter, that is steel.

The cup that fits over it and slips into another cup at the beginning of the shifter

rod is plastic.

Any industrial epoxy should work, JB? should work.
