Hello. I've got an '87 GMC 1500, 2wd with the 4.3 V-6 and column-shifted 3-speed manual trans. The truck shifts, but occasionally gets hung up between 1st gear and second. I know the mechanism under the hood has been repaired poorly by previous owners and is sloppy as heck. Also, the shift rod clips by the trans are missing along with who knows what else. So far all I've been able to find is an '87 light truck service manual that has a breakdown, but no part numbers. Does anyone have access to a GM PARTS manual that covers the entire column shift assembly, from lever all the way to the trans linkage? I really, really, REALLY don't want to chop a hole in the floor for a generic 3-speed floor shifter. Thank you! -Marc.
