Hi, i disasemble what i would call the selector shaft (not sure of the name) and i remarked there seem to have a broken tab. I think it would explain the shifter being really hard to move in every direction.



Now, the car is not rolling yet (currently swapping 3rd gen 3sgte with 94 mr2 e153). When i transfer my tranny to fwd, i reuse everything from my e154f. But now, with a broken shaft, what part can i use?
Do i have to reuse one from a e154f, or can i use one from something else? I was thinking camry/solara e153, or even a st185 ?

Do i even have the right name for this part?
Is there a part number of the entire shaft, or can i find just the part with the broken tab and replace it on my shaft?

Thanks everyone.

This is from st185

yes that is the selector shaft and it does look like a tab is broken in the middle.

converting an MR2 trans is no east feat. I always recommend using a Solara E153

Well, the conversion itself took me about 1 hour, and was pretty smooth, but I didn't realised at that moment that a tab from my gt4 front clip was broken. Now i have to chase the part.... any idea if i have to get the entire shaft or just the small part with the tab? I am not sure which number on the part chart i would need.
