[C38] Transmission Linkage

[1derful at comcast.net]

I am 6' 3" and #200....no way of getting close. 



I am going to put bolt through plate and put locking  to secure bolt to plate. 



I hope it works.  Don't want a disaster.

Tap transmission to the next larger size bolt, be careful not to go deeper as you will end up inside the transmission.

My transmission lever would not shift out of reverse. 

  

I found the problem but the answer  is? 

  

Problem is the sheet metal plate that hooks unto transmission has 2 bolts that hook plate to transmission.  One bolt came out so now the plate rotates around the persisting bolt instead of shifting.  I found the bolt under transmission but it won't screw in.  The bolt's threads are fine....maybe the threads on transmission are stripped. 

  

Any thoughts?
