Transmission problem - bolt that connects the column shift rod to the shifting arms broke

[younghorse62]

I need know the bolt size that connects the column shift rod to the shifting arms and how it attaches to transmission on a 1949 Jeepster

I've owned this car for 60 years.

Thanks,

Hi dennis
I see no one has responded. I think you are looking to find what connects the shift rod to the shift arm on the trans? If so it isn't a bolt it is supposed to be a rod witha cotter pin through it. There is a kind of rubber washer like thing that acts as a "shock absorber" to smooth out the shift. The rod goes through that.

Rod meaning pinthat takes a cotter pin.
