I purchased a rebuild kit for my stock shifter and realized that there was a major difference between the so called replacement reverse lockout T-handle part, and my worn out "so called original" The original part had a set screw that holds the rod that is used as the lockout feature, the replacement did not have the set screw and the rod was shorter. The replacement fit, but it was not long enought to engage the stop to prevent lockout. My shifter has a part number on the chrome shaft near the bottom (3874840). The number could be 3 (8/9) 74 (8/6) 40. Is this shifter the wrong part, what are my options. Believe it or not...I want the reverse lockout feature to work.
Thanks for your help...ps The car is an early 64.
