Well, some how I managed to break the bolt that holds the linkage cross piece to the top of the transaxle. I looks like the arm and the bolt are one part. Does anyone have a part number for this? I need to get one ordered.
Thanks
Randy

Thanks, I wasn't sure if that bolt came out. It looks like it's captured in there. I'll take a closer look. It's a radial break on the bolt, so it must have been over torqued. I didn't notice it until I dropped the tranaxle while doing the clutch. I can't imagine how I would have broke it, but I can't see how it would shift correctly with out it.

I did the same thing when re-assembling the linkage on my '84. I thought it must have been cracked by how easily it snapped, but maybe it is just a very soft bolt. I think it was around $15 at the dealer.
