I broke the shift linkage last night downshifting into 3rd. Looked at it today, the little ball/socket pin that connects that cable to the bottom of the shift lever broke. I went to ford today to try to get a new bushin/pin assembly and they said that they only sell it as a cable assembly for $70. Also did a quick search on here and found that a couple people just welded it back together, does that hold up? how else can I go about fixing this without spending all the money for the entire assembly when all i need is that pin, thanks for the help
