the piece i'm talking about is inside the trans. it is retained by 1 bolt and has a roller on the end of it that rides on the detent arm. sorry, i don't have any pix on hand. in my '72 manual, it is called the detent roller and spring, fig 7-661. it is made of spring steel and can be bent a little to give more tension. that being said, you need to address the linkage issue first. as joe said, you may need to adjust the linkage/cable. is the shifter connected via cable or rod?
