Broke my Shift Rod Coupling...
Dammit! putting in the brass inserts, and cracked one side (don't do that!)
anyone have a spare they would be willing to let go?

I think I have couple laying around. I am traveling this weekend and will be back home Sunday evening. Shoot me a reminder message on Sunday. No worries if you need it quicker.

Same thing happened to me . They are very flimsy . Do not bamh it in. If too tight , use some sand paper inside the coupler just lightly.

I have to say, I put one of the Wevo shift couplers in my 71 T and Holy Cow is the shifting crisp, smooth and predictable, my Wife even rolls through the gears without a hitch. Good upgrade for sure

+1 on some sanding. I cleaned the coupler and then "dressed" the inserts with sandpaper until I was satisfied with the fit. Fiddly but seems worth the effort.
Would still like a WEVO but then would have to zero everything in again which is time consuming since I am so anal. We shall see.
