well i was driving to work this morning, caught a red light...went to neutral, and that was it, the shifter just fell off i was in heavy traffic too, got a little scared cause i didn't know what was going on at first, so i had to shift with about an inch of stub left of the shifter, its the hex shaped part all the way at the bottom...anyway i can't get it into reverse and i need to be able to drive to work everyday....do any of you guys know how much T-5 shifters go for??? it's an 85 TA, with a 305...not sure if the V-6 and the 305's have the same shifter? but do any of you know how much i can pick one up for? i don't have the cash right now to buy a Ripper, so a used stock one will have to do for now.......thanks a lot guys, i need some help quick!! later
