Hi there everyone, i am trying to find a new or used shifter Shaft for my 1963/65 Brazilian that is starting to perish--anyone know anywhere i could procure one?
Not sure of the specific name of it but it runs from the shifter to the transmission.
Thanks in advance

Is this s Brazilian Bus or?
The long rod form the front to the rear is called a shift rod.
On a Brazilian Bus I'm not sure if it's the same as a German-built Bus.
This would be a weird part to be worn out, what's wrong with it?
The only thing I have seen in the past is if it's bent. _________________ How to Post Photos

A picture would be great.
Is the shaft rusting or is the sheet metal that holds the bushing what is rusting? |
