there is a little bracket that holds the ball of the shifter in place. i guess it could come loose. i've only heard of that problem with the adjustable ones

Thats funny.. This actually happend to me the other day.. I installed a polyurethane bushing kit in my car and forgot the metal clip on it.. Grabbed on the shifter and it fell right out.. My guess it you dont have the metal clip or its broken or something..

 

what metal clip the metal band that goes over the bushing is in also the plate thatholds the shifter in place on the torque rod is in the whole shifter pulls the little support shaft out of the stablizer bushing

 

that happened to me before. I think the bracket that holds the back of the shiftlinkage up was bent or somehing. When the engine would shift when launching the shifter would fall to the floor. I ended up screwing a bolt into the back of the linkage to extend it. kinda ghetto but coundnt think of any other way to fix it.

 

This diagram might help to describe the metal clip:

 

The metal plate the is metal clip im talking about.. Are the bolt holes stripped or something..

Yeah, makes it much easier to explain that part you need, etc.

 

Yup.. Better than saying "The part under..." "Not that part the other part...."

check the part with the other thing and that should take care of it.

 

well i put a bolt in it. it speaded the shaft out its not falling out at the moment but there is something else definatly i think it might be the motor mounts since there old and beat up

Time to go to pep boys and get some 3m window-weld and make some new mounts.. Is this an everyday driver or fun car...

Dont you hate it when that part breaks..

 

yep #19 was the problem for me as well. I screwed a bolt into the end of #15 to make it longer right above where the number 18 is.
