You are a saint! Thank you.
It still looks great in there. That's great, it looks like I don't have to worry about that. That leaves the stop adjustment on the shifter. I did find the three 3/8" bolts that mount the shifter to the mounting plate, bent. I guess I'm pulling to hard. That would change the adjustment of the stops some. I did adjust before the last failure, but maybe not enough. I'll take the shim out and hopefully report on Sunday.
Thanks again!
