    Ok, now that I have your attention! We're changing from a 200 to 250. It's a column shift automatic. The shift lever (not sure of the exact name) will not bolt up correctly. It bumps the transmission. no matter what we try to do. Is there a different one needed with the other changes we had to make? Here's a pic of the offending part :D We'd kinda like to shift the car!

    Rhonda,

    I should have that too. I'll give it to you so you can get your truck back.

    I will be home most of this weekend. Call first.

    Yeah! I know what it does, and where it's supposed to fit, just didn't realize it would be different. Should have, though. Thanks - Will call
