Default HELP! 3spd Auto trans shift cable needed

I bought one from DC Auto, and I think I damaged it trying to install it, it won't slide now. Mechanic ordered one, but I know no one stocks them.

Does anyone have an old 3spd trans laying around with a cable that you can sell me. After 3 weeks of jerking me around, the mechanic (suggested by rennlisters) FINALLY admitted they JUST started working on it.

If anyone has a cable, I'd be greatly appreciative.

I got mine from 928intl. My old one is 'stiff' and had a ratcheting sound when used so I do not think it will do you any good.

Oh yeah, all the dealers are out of them as well. DC Auto seems to have one, but if anyone in CA has a used one (Jim Bailey?) .

I can send you my old one if you want to try it. It did work, just didn't seem right though. If 928intl. cannot help give me a shout.

Scott,
double checked before I left, looks like I'm also out of stock, I'll triple check that in the morning

P'ville is 50 miles south of Fresno and about 45 mile north Bakersfield. ( I actually live closer to Poplar/Woodville) If rixter cannot help let me know.

Joe Joe, It doesn't look good. I will paypal you money to overnight it to me. I'll give it some wd-40 and cross my fingers. I'm going to switch to a 4spd auto trans as soon as I find one in my area anyway, so this part doesn't have to last for years. I can't tell you how much I appreciate this. I will pm you as well.
