Subject:      Shifter bracket/relay lever 82 Vanagon Diesel

Hello..

Looking for a shifter bracket -- the part that
attaches the shifter linkage to the shaft on the
transmission. 82 Vanagon Diesel.  I think the part
number is 251 711 219 and is the same as on the gas
vanagon 80-85?  Could be wrong, but...?

A photo of the part is here in case my description is
too vague.

Called a "relay lever" in the Bentley, though I've
never heard anyone call it that.

Anyone have one of these around?  If not, already
working on a way to get this one to be functional...

Did a quick fix that has lasted a day so far involving
putting wire in with the spline as filler, but I think
it is slipping a little, so will try a fix that a
diesel listmember suggested that involves a hammer...
Where's the duct tape solution?   :-)

Thanks,
