But I couldn't find them with a quick search. I don't see why you couldn't make one, it's not that complicated a piece. Me, I'm going to go with the Hemi Joel modification and use the original handle with a later box and get rid of the "wet noodle" shifter.

Door #1 Door #2 ZOWEE !!!!!!!!!!!! a fellow gave me a rusty, junk shifter a couple of years ago, and it was missing that cable. i made one from scratch, using bicycle cable, some nylon stock i had laying around, a grade 8 machine screw for the threaded end and a chunk of ???? steel on the shelf. hydraulic crimped and silver soldered the ends to the cable, and it seems to work as it should. however, it took me a few days to do this, but at least it kept me out of trouble during that time. for the "time is money" guys, maybe the cost is worth it ? my "money" is for my doctor's "time"..........
