'84 CJ7 258 4spd. Dana 300. Fiberglass tub. In storage for 20 YEARS... Got 'er running in six hours... Just sold my soul to the guy at the auto parts store,
2013 Cherokee... Bone stock....
Some of you might have read my other thread about my old jeep that was in storage for 20 years. She runs and drives now. I keep it at my dads grass strip airport because there is a lift there and I can work underneath. Last weekend, I was cleaning some of the cobwebs out by taking a run down the runway, and nearing the end I noticed the stick shifter seemed to be "twisting" in place. I wiggled it some more, right when I had to downshift to slow down to make the corner, and the whole stick came off in my hand!

It's a T-4 . There is a square male shaft coming out of the Transmission , and the shifter has a square female socket with a metal clip inside. I tried bending the clip to get it to grab the grooves on the male part, but really didn't accomplish anything. So now I just know to hold down on the shifter if a big bump is impending. Anyone have any suggestions?
