ok so im geting on the highway i reach down to shift to 5th gear and my shifter has dropped about six inches needless to say i was alarmed so i pulled the top off to take a look and it seems that the linkage has separated. i was wondering if anyone knows if there is a bolt that holds this part on, which i could not see when i jacked it up. or if its a broken weld which did not seem the case either heres some images to illustrate what im talking about

here it is held properly in place

it still shifts fine but the only thing holding it up is the exhaust pipe

any help or pointers would be much appreciated..

You should get your shifter one of those Life Alert necklaces!!! Get it????
I've fallen, and I can't get up!!!!! I know, I need help...

WTF?

Short cut to Chris Rummel's Email for info on the bracket: Rumnhammer@aol.com

It's pretty easy to replace. If you have a 4 cyl it interchanges to the 90-94 protege 5 speed as well. Pretty easy to find. The bracket on the V6 shift bar is slightly different so you can't interchange between GS and RS.
