Topic: 4 Speed Shifter Problem
in Forum: C3 Driveline Components
I noticed that the casting on my shifter T-Handle was broken so I ordered a new part for my 68 big block 4 speed coupe. I put the new T-Handle on and now notice that the reverse lock out is not working. In the past, after I lifted the T-Handle, it felt like I had to push against a spring or something to get into reverse. Now I can just push the shifter over with no resistance what so ever. Anyone have any idea what I broke. What needs replacement? Is it a pin, spring?
Any help would be appreciated.

This is a stock shifter. Yes, the spring is still under the cap. When I lift up the T-Handle, I feel the spring, but when I push the stick to the left side, that is when I don't feel anything to push against.

I think you hit upon something about the length of the T-Bar. Will check it out.
