Does anyone have a photo of the shift linkage from the shifter to the transmission ? i believe i'm missing the linkage and i dont now what i need. be appreciated thanks.

 

Could be that the plastic snap in connector has broken. I managed to fix mine with a nut/bolt and loctite.

 

If it's the same as my 1990 & 1992, it's just a cable - it's like $30 at Autozone. It's a fixed size/length, with no adjustment - pins in at shifter and bolts in on driver side tranny - install from the topside through the console.
