check shift tower bolts, make sure they're tight, then check the lower part of shift lever, cable snaps onto a ball stud. some aftermarket shifters break at this welded area. haven't heard about a stock one breaking, but anything's possible. after this I'm clueless.





Exactly what happen to me 700 miles from home!! Pull up the shift boot and move it around, if the cable at the bottom doesn't move that is your colpret. I had mine welded at a muffler shop and no problems since. Mine was the aftermarket obx shifter but is fine now.
