Galaxie Shift linkage diagram or exploded view??
« on: August 12, 2016, 02:35:06 PM »
So I'm working out the bugs on my '64 Galaxie 390/C6 and since I re-installed the engine I am having issues with the shift linkage z-bar/rod slipping out of the bracket on the back of the block.  I can shift it all through the gears like butter until I drive it and then it pushes the rod out of the hole and I have no gear selection capabilities... I can see the issue but I'm not sure if someone messed around with it previously and if I may be missing parts.. does anyone have a diagram for what parts are supposed to be on a column shift car? 

Many thanks in advance!

Nevermind... this thing has been tampered with.  I am welding in my own steel bushings in place of all the improvised "bushings".  After really tearing into it, I'm amazed that it shifted so well previously!  :o
